It seems to me that someone, somewhere must have been archieving the postscript group for a while. These things come up over and over, and perhaps it would be nice to be able to access the old streams and threads of conversation periodicaly. If anyone has been arcing this stuff, let us know. I have recently started doing that, but my feed doesnot keep this stuff around for more than 3 or 4 days, and hes' up to message 344x something. This, he says, is the number of messages that have come and gone in the past 2 years or so. Cheers Woody
