I should have made a couple of points clearer in my posting:

1. I'm not saying "clean up your act, folks".  I doubt that the Canadian
	contributors to the various newsgroups account for enough material
	to make much difference.

2. I wasn't, actually, referring to the phone-bill problem (although it is
	a very real problem).  I was thinking more of the general issue:
	we are spending money on phones, spending cpu cycles on processing,
	spending disk space on storage, spending human effort on resolving
	problems with news flow, and tying up our modems for a non-trivial
	fraction of each day... for what?  Looking at the "top 25" listing,
	I get an overwhelming impression that the cost/benefit ratio is poor
	already and steadily getting worse.  Barring disasters, the limiting
	factor is more likely to be fed-up news administrators rather than
	excessive phone bills.
