Ok - Here's what I did. How can I fix it now. (I have RTFM but I may have mis-  
sed something)

I posted an article and when i read it I realized it was messed up. Instead of
doing a "C" to cancel, as I now know I should have, I exited thinking I could 
"unpost" using postnews.

Realizing that mistake, I went back to "rn" to pull up the article by number
and do the proper cancel but since all articles in the group were read, I
couldn't get into the group. What do I do at that point?

Also, since I've already read the article, will I be able to pull it up by 
number once I get into the group?

When helping with this problem, please flame me good so that others will learn
from my brazen irresponsibility.
