Titolo: Trial of a Timelord

I recently received the 'Limited Edition' box set of this season long saga 
as a birthday gift (from my brother - aint he the best :) and I  noticed 
that the Box says 'Trial of _the_ Timelord'...I was wondering if anyone 
knows why this US$75+ 'limited edition' product has such an obvious mistake 
on the box. Are they all like this? Did the Beeb change the title for the 
American release of this set of tapes? Does CBS/FOX video think that the 
Doctor is the ONLY timelord and therefore decided to change the name of the 
story themselves?
enquireing minds want to know :)

To me, clowns aren't funny. In fact, they're kinda scary.
I've wondered where this started and I think it goes back
to the time I went to the circus and a clown killed my dad.

   "Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know
    where we can find information upon it." -- Dr Samuel Johnson


> This is especially evidenced by my copy of the Troughton Years, which
includes clips from "The Tree Doctors".
... As the Master stumbled through the murky woods, he kept glancing over
his shoulder fearing that whatever was following him would catch up with
him.  He hadn't seen his foe, but he knew he was being followed - perhaps
one of the senses Timelords possess or his paranoid nature.  Suddenly, a
snapping branch alerted him of the presence of his pursuers.  With hearty
cries, the Tree Doctors began descending upon him.  William Hartnell leaping
from a mighty sycamore, brandishing a walking stick menacingly.  Jon Pertwee
and Peter Davison swinging from the vines of a shrouded palm tree barely
missing their target as they sailed through the air over-top of the Master's
head.  Tom baker standing on the branch of a mighty Larch, shouting a
furious tarzanesque cry of anger.  Patrick Troughton and Colin Baker high
atop a coconut tree, launching the painfully heavy tropical food items with
ferocious anger.  And of course, Sylvester McCoy hiding in some shrubbery at
the bottom concocting a hideously complicated plan that could, if
unsuccessful result in the creation of a parallel universe and the eventual
death of two companions.  The Master, abandoning all sense of dignity, ran
blindly away from the Tree Doctors, hoping to escape them before they could
follow him in their TARDES's or tracking him with K-10...
Join us next week when the Tree Doctors face the menacing terrible termites
of Terileptus... which coincidentally live in a part of an alien planet that
looks surprisingly like a quarry and who are composed primarily of bubble
wrap.

Peter Davidson?!? Sorry, I don't recall there ever being an actor by that 
name having ever played the part.
Did we miss one over here in the colonies?
Oh, I know, you must mean Peter DAVISON, he of the Cricket wearing Time 
Lords.
You know, you must be more specific :)

You know, If ole Petey got some sort of compensation for everytime someone 
publicly used the name Davidson in conection with the role of the Doctor, 
he'd be able to afford his own private Island country in the pacific by now

Has *anyone* got any idea quite how a bunch of posts from this mailing list
has somehow managed to crop up in it.comp.console.playstation???
It's not that I care particularly about spamming an Italian newsgroup with
our waffle - but posts to this list (in my case, anyway) come in with my
real - non-antispammed - email address attached, and I've already got some
unwanted mail.
Fortunately, the chap who 'spammed' me, was very honest, and polite, and
sorry for what he'd done.
How in gods name did this happen?

 How in gods name did this happen?
So that explains why I got some spam about Playstations  saying they'd
seen me posting to some playstation newsgroup.
Hmmm, check on Deja and, yup, there are loads of posts from the list -
all the one's I've made since I joined AFAICT. And some from Brax, you,
etc.
Now this is at the bottom of the posts:
 Posted from 
shed.pipex.net
 [158.43.128.176]
 via Mailgate.ORG Server - 
http://www.mailgate.org
The problem with following it further - 
mailgate.org
 is in Italian.
I don't understand Italian.
IT does appear that it's possible to post to this newsgroup with the
email address of
it.comp.conso...@mailgate.org
So, I guess that some lowdown scumsucking piece of shit has faked a
subscription to the list using that mail address and so everything we
post is getting sent to the newsgroup.
And possibly a massive number of other newsgroups too.
Do we actually have any list-admin on here?
If so, can you check for (and remove) anyone subscribed with an
@
mailgate.org
 email address please?

So *that's* what happened. I received some playstation related spam this 
morning but didn't try to find out who it was coming from...never reply to a 
spam as it tells the spammer that they have a valid address to send more 
crap to.
If anyone has any info as to why this is happening iut would be greatly 
appreciated.

 crap to.
If the spam was from a Christopher Troiani, then he seems to be an
okay-sort-of spammer (if there is such a thing) - his spam actually had his
real email in. And when I threatened to complain if he didn't take me off
his mailing list, then he became very helpful indeed.
I don't normally reply to them - but getting spam into this particular
account was a suprise. I've sent a message to the administrator of this list
(whoever that is).

Well... the only chance to try to solve this problem is someone from
your mailing list contact your listmaster and ask him to remove
permanently our newsgroup, maybe using a filter to avoid future
subscriptions (you know... internet is full of lamers :((( and it's
possible someother try to subscribe again our ng).
Could you try to contact your administrator, please?
Now all our newsgroup users have to kill (well.. try to kill..) your
threads and, you know, this is not the best solution (neither for you
that receive some flame message from us.... ).
Thank you and sorry for this problem!!! ^___^
