Why are these bogus "newgroup comp.sources.unix unmoderated" control
messages propagating all over the world?  Look at the path it took to
reach me; surely some news admin somewhere in this chain should have
noticed and cancelled the article before it got farther, n'est-ce pas?

We've all got to stay on our toes with randoms like news@pbinfo.uucp around!
