I have decided to terminate mod.recipes on May 1. I am disgusted with the
ignorant heavy-handed shenanigans of the net heavies as manifested in the
recent renaming orgy; I am especially disgusted with its chief perpetrator,
Rick Adams, and his continuing inability to recognize quality and service to
readers when he sees it. I have decided that I do not want to spend my good
time working on something that he insists on dragging down to the level of
the rest of the network.

It was a lot of fun until recently. If some network besides "Cabal USENET"
becomes viable, I will restart mod.recipes on that network. I am looking at
Stargate, and also at a parallel USENET using the "mod." prefix, but for now,
I'm just turning it off.

I will continue to run the archive server for a few more months, so that all
of you can catch up on your back issues.
