No, it was to demonstrate faith in moderated news groups. I sent it
twice (after getting a message about having sent an empty file). I
haven't seen anything, and will be posting it here (comp.sys.amiga)
shortly. So much for faith.

I suspect that the problem is that ulowell does _not_ have a reliable
connection to the outside world. I just changed all the ulowell.csnet
entries in info-68k to !ulowell! because UUCP is more reliable than
their CSNET connection. Gag. Of course there are several requirements
for a moderated group to work; any of them could be failing in this
case.

While I'm on the subject, Barry Shein has suggested a new moderated
group for the "My Computer Is Better Than Your Computer" Wars -
including an archive, so that people interested in buying such things
could get them. I (having far more free time than I know what to do
with [Tongue firmly in cheek; actually, it's somewhere in the next
room....]. Yes Erik, I know that bdbm is next on the list.....) have
volunteered to moderate it if he'll do the net.politics to set it up.
Watch for it, coming to a usenet node near you: talk.religion.micros
:-)!
