Keep a month's worth of news?  Ha!  That stopped being possible years
ago.  Here, we keep 1 week of comp,news,sci,rec,misc,soc,gnu & bionet.
We keep 1 day worth of talk and comp.binaries.*, and we don't get alt.
Even with those restrictions, the disk has filled up a few times with
too much cruft.  I doubt we're the only site in such a situation.

I'm sure that Brian's numbers will be skewed some by this.
