Too many people have referred to article mangling that occurs "through no fault of the poster." There is no such thing. Each poster chooses her method for Usenet access. If she chooses a method that does not protect against the creation of invalid articles, then she is responsible for the consequences of that choice. -- Chip Salzenberg at Teltronics/TCT , "You can call Usenet a democracy if you want to. You can call it a totalitarian dictatorship run by space aliens and the ghost of Elvis. It doesn't matter either way." -- Dave Mack
