I wonder, was it posted SEPERATELY to these four (or six) newsgroups, or was
it crossposted?  If it was posted individually to each group, then it's
concidered bad form and a waste of bandwidth.  If it was crossposted, then
it's perfectly okay, and even proper.  It only becomes bad form again if it's
crossposted to ninety newsgroups!  :-)
