If you subscribe to a specific list of biz groups INCLUDING biz.control,
then it's easy to see how biz.clarinet.sample could get *created* on
your system, since that's a control message.  If your newsfeed truly
was not feeding you biz.* in HIS sys file, and truly did not add the
specific group biz.clarinet.sample to your entry, then it is difficult
to see how b.c.s articles could have arrived at your system.  That is,
the expected behavior under the setup described would be that b.c.s
would get created but remain empty.

If the downstream sys file does not say biz.* and does not list b.c.s,
then those articles should have been appearing in 'junk'.
