Research and Development Lines: 26 In article <8912181809.AA01062@ncar.ucar.EDU>, MATON%SASK.BITNET@EVANS.UCAR.EDU crossposts to ALL the above groups, except for news.admin, which I added. This wanton crossposting of talk.bizarre stupidity by talk.bizarre stupids must cease; I at least am quite fed up with these people and their inability to keep their trash in their own group. We do not receive talk.bizarre here and we do not want to and this continual crossposting of talk.bizarre article to other groups is a subversion of a News Administrator's control over his feed. I recommend that we proceed at once with Gregory Paris' suggestion, which was to refuse to propagate talk.bizarre from site to site; then talk.bizarre would continue to exist, but much diminished; I think it would eventually fade away. Shouldn't unneighborly conduct on the net be discouraged? Shouldn't this barrage of crossposting cease? Shouldn't we stop propagating talk.bizarre? +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Jean-Paul Inso, systems programmer, Linkage Systems Inc.
