+---------------
| The degradation in network service at ihnp4 precipitated by Gary
| Murakami's departure is an interesting example of just how dependent
| the USENET is on specific individuals to keep the network moving along
| at key points. For another example, decvax has never been as responsive
| as it was in the good old days when Armando Stettner was there...
+---------------

So I found out.  cwruecmp, the Cleveland, OH. ``backbone'', will NEVER receive
moderated groups correctly; decvax will neither check their system nor inform
their feeds, I found out.  [As long as SA's act this way, moderated groups are
a lossage.  Pity; if people cared, they could be a partial solution to this
overloaded net's problems.]
