Actually, as I recall, the original complaint was that a supposed Alt.Net 
subscriber was "flooding" one of her pet groups. However, it appears the "flood" 
consisted of something like 30 to 40 messages over several days, hardly what 
most of us would consider a flood of Biblical proportions. She was properly 
chastized for trying to make a mountain (or perhaps a deluge) out of a molehill.
