Articles are counted if they arrived at tut.cis.ohio-state.edu between 10AM on October 31 and 11:40AM on November 14. Since all of the work is done from the history file, cross-posting is irrelevant. Subjects and newsgroups are taken from the first article in the thread. Prohibited where law by void.
