Thanks.] Could the word "VMS" be placed (by author, moderator, whoever) in the subject line so that we poor Unix users who like to read this newsgroup for the (very few) articles on hardware/rumours are not inundated by VMS related articles? Or maybe the newsgroup could be split (and renamed) into mod.computers.vax and mod.computers.vax.vms, or some other reasonably helpful way ? It is impossible to screen-out VMS articles via the subject line. -- These opinions are the best I could come up with on short notice. I would like to thank my parents, my friends, the authors of books I've read, and life itself for helping me form these opinions. However none of the afore-mentioned necessarily agree with what I have said here. {allegra,clyde,decvax,ihnp4,linus}!watmath!wateng!djhawley
