On gethen, about 50% of the unix-pc articles are for unix-pc only - no multiple links on 'em. Of the rest, essentially all of 'em were posted originally to comp.sys.att, with unix-pc added as a cross-posting. It isn't a simplistic situation - there is such a mix of unix-pc only, comp.sys.att only, and cross-posts that deciding to eliminate *either* source of information would be a losing proposition. --- Michael J.
