	You should learn a bit more about Usenet before you start
flaming. Someone, i.e. ONE person, cross-posted to both
newsgroups. Everyone else who replied to that post unknowing
posted to both newsgroups. In fact, I didn't notice until you
decided to post your flame. A flame was unnecessary. I have no
desire to make your group as ridiculously crowded and uninformed
as comp.sys.amiga.advocacy usually is. 8-)

	ANY REPLIES TO THIS POST WILL GO TO BOTH NEWSGROUPS

	The next time you post, check the line that says
Newsgroups: and if there are two newsgroups in it remove the one
you don't want to post to. It's that simple.
