Lines: 13 Class: discussion Please folks, let's not all flame about a lot of heresay. I know the people who run GEnie, and I feel fairly sure that they would not try to claim any particular copyright on material fed to USENET from GEnie, unless some effort were done to filter that feed. As far as I know, GEnie would probably be glad to act as a USENET feed for material uploaded to USENET, passing it on to other sites, for $6/hour, once they get such software up. So please, no flame wars over something that somebody thinks they heard from somebody not in a position to say anything. -- Brad Templeton, ClariNet Communications Corp. -- Waterloo, Ontario 519/884-7473
