on about every fifth or so article I read, the text goes past the 80th
column, and the last character spells out a whole sentence one character
at a time.  I'm using MS-Kermit in VT-100 mode on an XT clone, Herc graphics,
logging onto a Sequent 81 unix box, in k-shell. I use "rn" to read
Usenet.

is this problem with my terminal emulation, the data connection,
the Sequent, the article, or what ??

thanks in retreat,
