THIS IS WRONG.  Simple examples:
	1) Canceling other people's articles.  You, Mr. John Palmer, are
	   guilty of this.
	2) Posting 100's or large articles that are copies of core
	   files that you generate.
	3) Postings that are illegal.  If your system generates
	   articles that are illegal, then my system may be liable for
	   passing them on if I knew about them and didn't do anything
	   to prevent them.

I could come up with others, Mr. John Palmer, but you obviously never
listen to anybody anyway.
