I'm having  a horrible  day. I  tried to  send out  a control  message to
rmgroup  bit.listserv.gis-l and  accidentally put  my id  in the  control
message. Then, when  I went to repost  it, I didn't proof-read  it and it
went out as an  rmgroup on bit.admin.ctl. Finally, I got  a third one off
correctly. DO  NOT RMGROUP EITHER ME  OR BIT.ADMIN! The only  group to be
rmgrouped of the three is  bit.listserv.gis-l. My appologies to all. (Now
if  only  SHARE  would  hurry  up  and get  here.  I  *need*  a  week  in
Disneyland.) :-)

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!
