Welllllll . . .   OK.  :-)

I think you might be just a little harsh on yourself, Jim.  My news
software allows me to trap control messages and rewrite them into command
procedures which are mailed to the usenet administrator (yours truly) for
checking and (possible) execution.  Both messages that you sent out
yesterday were set up to do the right thing as far as my system was
concerned.

I'll second that!
