Who else used 66.185.84.204 in December 2003?

Update. As you can see here, the reason that there are so many posts from such a variety of individuals through this IP is because it was one of Rogers' proxy servers and therefore forwarded internet traffic for hundreds of thousands of users.

I had created a list of places where we can see 66.185.84.204 (or its host-name equivalent, wc09.mtnk.rnc.net.cable.rogers.com) being used in 2003 here, and have been adding to it as I found new examples. That list has now grown a little unwieldy, so I am replacing it with several shorter lists (indexed at the bottom). Here is a list of attested users in December, 2003, which I divide into two lists. The first list is examples of the IP (or host-name equivalent) appearing in monthly visitor logs, which only allow us to conclude that the visit had taken place sometime during the month. The second list are cases where we know the specific date.
