Seems to overstate both the worth of turn of the Century network culture (we 
are talking about a few hundred people here on a list serve or two) and NN. 
More like a sub-cultural splinter group... Of all the people on the internet I 
doubt more than 0.01% have ever heard of NN. Hardly infamous.

(but as NN is eternally prescient I am sure I will now be burned to a crisp ;)
