  I guess I should have posted the explanation in duplicate, too. I
assume that you mean the regular informational postings. The script
which posts them had a problem and sent me mail saying it couldn't post
the messages. It lied. I said {expletive deleted} and posted them by
hand, since they keep down the number of questions.

  Sorry about that, they were out for two days before I found out, and
there's not much good sending a cancel after that, the bandwidth is gone.
