When we pushed Ross on the actual *Usenet* shareware issue, i.e., whether the core groups should carry it, he more or less said 'oh well, yeah on that part of it I guess I don't care.' Which means all the rest of this is just CIS-lookalike opinion exchange more appropriate to talk.misc than to comp.sources.d. It is apparently impossible to convince some BBS exiles that not every *single* opinion under the sun is appropriate material for a newsgroup like this. In practice, only suppressing the urge to follow up will get us anywhere on this one. (I failed to suppress... :-) ) By the way, how *DO* I chat the sysop on this board? -- "The country couldn't run without Prohibition. ][ Tom Neff That is the industrial fact." -- Henry Ford, 1929 ][ tneff@bfmny0.UU.NET
