The reason is that the vast majority of postings disregard the newsgroup concept and post for sale to EVERY possible newsgroup that might see their product for sale. I see for sale notices in misc.forsale and misc.wanted, even though it's a for sale item. Now I'll see it again in comp.sys.apple2 if it's an Apple item and again in misc.forsale.computers because the person will disregard the request to only post there. Too bad there isn't enough self control "out there." ______________________________________________________________________________ Mike Ungerman |Proline:mikeu@pro-magic Pro-Magic BBS: 407-366-0156 |uucp:crash!pnet01!pro-magic!mikeu 300/1200/2400/9600 Baud 24hrs |arpa:crash!pnet01!pro-magic!mikeu@nosc.mil Apple Tree of Central Florida, Inc |Internet:mikeu@pro-magic.cts.com Orlando, Florida|Voice:407-366-0060|Compuserve:71326,31 Prodigy: JSNP58A
