BTR.COM is getting a ton of comp.*.3b1 and unix-pc.* material and is fed by
only decwrl, mips and fernwood ... systems which Kris indicated are NOT feeding
3B1 properly.

PORTAL isn't getting diddly-squirt, but that's their problem.  :-)

OK, so WHERE or HOW are all the 3b1 postings arriving at BTR?  Via some magical
"ether" net on which one uses Philosopher's Stone transceivers and crystal
terminators with little winged faeries twiddling the bits?  :-)

In case anyone's interested, I have archived EVERYTHING appearing in the
comp.*.3b1 newsgroups.  The compressed tar file is already approaching 1MB, so
please do NOT ask me to email it to you.  I plan to make it available at the
users' group meeting this month and perhaps something can be worked out by
US Mail for anyone interested.
