Hi, Thom. Glad you're back.

Then again maybe "good old Sock" may want to see what real people in a
real Court of Law think bout it :^)


Sure! (I _think_ you're referring to me via a poke at my nym.)

Here's my interpretation (Disclaimer: IANAL - I Am Not A Lawyer)

A frogery can be likened to a *parody* of well known people offered by
comedians on stages all across the planet. (In the Usenet context, the
"well known person" is often the self-appointed authority figure. :^)

It's also akin to a cartoonist drawing a caricature of a cowboy
riding a horse into the town of Petrolgulf with his six-shooter a-blazing
and labeling it "George W. Bish, President of The World."
