110 copies?  You need a bigger computer ^-).  Here at Bell Labs we got
2500 copies of it.  Our internal netnews administration posted
a notice about how this posting (and a couple of others in
other groups) tickled a bug in netnews software that kept
spewing out copies till someone hit rubout.
I got the impression that it was not even the author's own site
that got bit.

I manually edited my .newsrc file to skip the 2500 copies.
No way of knowing how many legit articles mixed in there
got trashed.
