	I hardly qualify as an official spokesman for any of the groups
that I read, but I personally would rather see a group go away than
subjected to random junking of articles.  Of course it's not really random
in the sense that junker calls rand() to pick articles to junk -- that part
is (if I understand it properly) deterministic from junker's point of view.
It is, however, random from my point of view because there is no way I can
determine when I post an article whether it will get junked or not.

	Don't expect to work up much sympathy for your cause with an
obnoxious attitude like that.  In fact, I wouldn't have bothered with this
followup had it not been for this little jab at the end.
