Because I knew that one of the following news wizards:

yourself, rick@uunet.uu.net, henry@utzoo.uucp, geoff@utstat.uucp, brad@looking.
on.ca, peter@ficc.uu.net and others :-)

would answer, and based on what I think I know about where those people are,
usa didn't catch brad,henry,or geoff, while world seemed like it would be
wasting bandwidth, when I could get the answer with a smaller distribution.

Anyway, thanks for answering, it explained it perfectly to me (now).
