Curious question....

I'm running NetNews on a disk that is very tight on space, so of
course I run 'expire' to keep the load down as much as possible.

I can see that my file, /usr/lib/news/history, is hovering around
1/2MB and holding, but what about /usr/lib/news/history.pag??

This file is over 2MB and growing.  Can I clear it out?  Does it
every get cleared out?  Whats up with this file??

Any help would be appreciated.
