From article <10004@microsoft.UUCP+, by fredf@microsoft.UUCP (Fred Freeland):
+ I agree that a whopping 12 volume set of Nethack is NOT what the doctor
+ ordered after a long dry spell. Games, while nice diversions, do not get 
+ most people that use this medium salivating.
+ 
+ I don't know. Maybe it's me. I just keep whining about it. We just continue
+ to be in the dark. We have no idea how long the queue is, or even if there is
+ one. We have no preview of coming attractions at all. We go for weeks without
+ a peep from the moderator. Rahul, perhaps you could be a little more forthcoming
+ about what's going on with c.b.i.p.  I think everyone would benefit and I'd
+ shut up.

Some people use the postings as games for their children.  My boys want 
nethack after playing MORIA, but unfortunately at our site we only got the
first 11 pieces and are missing the 12th.  But this seems to be a habit
at our site anything over three pieces always seems to be incomplete.
We did not receive pc-writeC.6 through pc-writeC.9.
