Hi, Ken -
	Welcome to the group!

	First of all, this is NOT meant as a slight on Ken,
	or on anyone else for that matter! OK? OK. Now, on
	with what I want to say...

For general knowledge, and merely using Ken's message as a
springboard: messages can be cancelled, too. At least, with the rn
news-reading package it's trivial. When the poster of an article
reads his posting (which means that the message did, in all
liklihood, actually get posted) s/he can hit C (shift-C) and rn
will send out a (kind of magic) message that deletes the posting
and relieves everyone else from having to read it. So, you'll have
verified that the message got posted without bothering anyone else
with it.

		Yours for easier news-reading,

		keith

PS - Please save your "why post this here, it's not about amiga's"
     posting and flames for /dev/null. I'm just trying to help out, OK!?
