	Yes? There is no "chicago" newsgroup. Either Paul did not pick up 
on the error, as I did not, or Paul is assuming that there is a "chicago" 
newsgroup that one should not read. I'm assuming that the original 
poster's intent was to talk about IRC. Just because there is an error in 
his vocabulary is no reason to insult the guy. Those who should be 
insulted are anal-retentive slugs who feel superior because they haven't 
slipped and called a channel a newsgroup, yet insult others for a simple 
vocabulary error.

	But if you wish to follow suit, and unsubscribe from the #chicago 
newsgroup anyway, you're quite welcome to, you twits.

	Yup, the second paragraph still makes no sense to me, unless the 
poster is being a moron. :) *bows*
