  But you didn't fix that--you yourself just set followups to
only austin.usenet.config!  So I fixed it for you
and threw in some groups.  Hope that pleases
you (sorry Star Traveler).

  Any post to an existing unmoderated group that is 
made moderated will be reposted to a wide 
variety of alt.sex.* groups, etc. leaving out
the 'moderated' group.  In fact mailing lists 
exist for just such purposes and you can
end up looking pretty foolish to say the

new one.

  It'll deal with whatever consumers would like

  Yes--those who point out that ISPs that sell
UNLIMITED service and then attempt to 
put limits on it are 'kooks'.  One can
easily see why the crooks would like
to control the discussion with moderation.
