Bruce (umcp-cs!israel) makes a lot of good points. I generally agree.
However, marking the first article in a group may not be useful, when
article 1 is a never-expire introduction to the group, or article 50
is the netiquette document and we're now on to article 10,000. Perhaps
a file could record all the numbers of articles more than two weeks old,
plus the first number of the current articles, e.g.:
1,50,117,144,1090-
