Which "list of supposed nazis and racists" is that, Ms.  Thompson?
Nizkor maintains no such lists, and invites you to produce one.

When you _sent_ the files is not the same as when I _receive_
the files, unless you wish to claim that British Columbia and
Indiana are in the same time zone?

Correct - the message was received on July 3, at 23:14
hours PDT, as indicated in the message header.

That date was from the flat file, and is correct.

Yup

Yup.

yup :-)

Nope :-)

Yup, but you deleted part of it. Why would someone want to do
that, Ms. Thompson?

Let me make certain I understand this. You are claiming that
the time and date of receipt on nizkor, 23:14 PDT, is
24-hours-apart from the date the message was sent, July 4,
01:08 EST? Is this the claim you intend to make in court? That
should be enlightening.

The first copy was received here at 23:14.
The next copy was received here at 23:43.

I am not interested in when you sent them. I am interested in
when they arrived. You seem confused about that.

Two assumptions here are incorrect. First, because the second
message was received 29 minutes after the first, I assumed it
was sent after the first.

Second, because you sent the second message 52 minutes before
the first, you assumed it would arrive earlier. In fact, as
the record shows, it did not.

Look up "time zones" and "daylight time."

Look up "time zones" and "daylight time."

Now that you have looked them up, you will be able to explain
them to the judge. I'm certain he will find it enlightening.
