Oh yeah, the louder you yell the sooner you'll get what you want.
What is the need for net.sources.pc when no one is posting articles
which would go in such a newsgroup?

Note that people on the ARPANET don't post code, it gets deposited in
a central machine which other ARPANET users can access. Since they don't
post programs, having net.sources.pc would not give you access to such.
Just think of it as a big RCPM system, except you can't dial it.
