Nayas Admits Errors, Promises to Be Honest Going Forward, Switches to
Verizon
April 1, 2006, 9:22 AM source: APN

John Nayas, who has gained a reputation on Usenet newsgroups as the most
dishonest poster of the 21st century, announced today that he's turning
over a new leaf, and from now on will post only verifiable facts. Nayas
stated, "It was fun being the devils advocate, but I think that people
got tired of of me posting incorrect information day, after day...it
just got really old."

Nayas, who's become famous for his content-free responses when he's
unable to counter referenced facts, said that he apologizes for his
habit of posting one-liners consisting of "Rubbish," "Nonsense," "Good
Scramble," "Not True," etc., when backed into a corner. "It was
childish," he admitted, "I've grown up and will now gracefully admit my
mistakes."

When asked why he's been defending Cingular for so many years, almost
always with false statements, he simply shrugged and stated, "I felt bad
for them, I always root for the underdog. Cingular entered the wireless
game very late in my area, they got stuck with 1900 Mhz, and they
finally had to buy AT&T Wireless in order to solve their coverage
problems. They constantly get hammered in all the independent surveys of
cellular coverage and quality. Someone had to make up stories to counter
the facts, and I took on that responsibility."

Nayas confirmed that he is changing his wireless carrier from Cingular
to Verizon, because he's had no Cingular coverage at his home for the
past 6 years, "I put on a good show, and fooled a lot of people, but I'm
tired of having to drive three miles in order to make a call." He
continued, "people always get my voice mail, and think that my phone is
off, but in reality I'm home, and I have to retrieve my Cingular voice
mail from my land-line. Verizon has great coverage at my house, and I'll
finally be able to use my phone on my sailboat."

Nayas also admitted that in reality he's a Democrat, and that believes
in open competition. He secretly deplored the 2005 FCC decision to
eliminate competition in the DSL market, and he is lobbying the FCC to
rescind their August 2005 decision. Nayas stated: "I used to always link
to studies from the Hoover Institution, until someone informed me about
their political bias, and their connections to big business. Wow! I was
surprised, as I've had nothing but good service from their cleaning
appliances."

Nayas also promised to fix his Cingular FAQ on Wikipedia, which contains
hundreds of incorrect statements.

Watching someone disintegrate due to Alzheimer's is not really funny.
It's pathetic.

Repeatedly stating the same incorrect information, forgetting which
thread one was last eviscerated in, ignoring basic laws of physics,
"forgetting" about large swaths of the Bay area, disregarding Occam's
Razor (not a pun!) in favor of convoluted "user error" theories--all the
signs were there. OK, maybe in this case it was funny.

It's only a matter of time before his accurate-to-a-micro-millimeter GPS
leads him to Gilligan's Island (in search of the only Cingular coverage
hole). One can only hope his visit lasts longer than the series...

Have a nice day!

If you're going to make up stuff, at least get the guy's name right. It's
NAVAS.

For whatever reason, the Sunday Supplement came with today's paper,
but was labeled, "Friday's Supplement."

It's all *very* confusing.
