We just went through this same pointless drivel in mid-summer, and as soon as a new bunch of gullible school kids get on the net, this bozo has to set off another wide bandwidth, zero value posting war. The guppies who suckered into following this up, _please_ correct your "Newsgroups: " lines to contain _only_ misc.legal in all successive postings. It may save your accounts. It will certainly do wonders for my nerves. Why the news posting software writers haven't corrected the obvious flaw of allowing cross-posted articles without followup-to entries, after so many ample demonstrations of the complete necessity of such a fix, is beyond me.
