I've been following both net.news and net.news.group for about five months and I've seen only a little discussion about this and never had read this particular solution. But that is not my flame. The thing that riles me is that our site apparently only got the newgroup message for these (and a bunch of other moderated groups) within the last twenty-four hours. Praytell, how can this have only happened here recently when you state that these groups "already exist" as if they HAVE existed for some time and that everyone ought to know about them??? More than that, how could (for example) I have generated any traffic in a group of whose existence I was previously unaware? If there is a simple explanation for this, I will humbly accept correction. ZtF
