In the original post, the compiler said that he egrep'ed all of his sites
news spool, which included all of the Big 7 groups - thus c.s.a.* were included.
However, there was a 4 day expiry time on his server and he didn't say when the
list was compiled, so its possible that it was over a weekend, when c.s.a.*
traffic is considerably lower.
