Message-ID: <1991Jan29.030040.26170@scifi.uucp> Date: 29 Jan 91 03:00:40 GMT Organization: Nick Simicich, Peekskill, NY Lines: 29 Back at the beginning of December, I posted a recipe for Buffalo Wings. It was a good recipe, and someone else thought so, because they saved it, and when someone asked for help making buffalo wings, they posted a collection of recipes which included my posting, and its headers, following a control-L. I'm not sure what is happening. I got a note from Melissa of JPL, asking "Why does this get posted over and over again?" I thought that it was a good recipe and that maybe she was complaining because a couple of people had reposted it, but no, she was complaining because many sites had decided that this part of another posting was in fact a separate posting, and had applied a new article ID to the posting and started it off again. I don't know what to do about this. I suspect it is too late. I might consider issuing cancels against about a hundred of these wild articles since they appear to come from me, and hope that some folks are happier. I've cross posted to news.software.b in the hopes that someone can determine what is going on. Is this a known error and just a down level site (or several)? Can someone explain it to me? (To the folks in rec.food.cooking, I apologize, but I really didn't post it a hundred times...) -- Nick Simicich - uunet!bywater!scifi!njs - njs@ibm.com SSI #AOWI 3958, HSA 318
