2.  I said 19.2K is the pits when you put the MFP in divide-by-1 mode. 
This is true, and it's true because the clocks on two machines won't be
exactly in synch.  See the discussion of 38KBaud on ST for more about
this.  When you use the normal 19.2K set up by Rsconf, you're fine. 

3.  With the signal/noise ratio on the net, you should be more surprised
that something DOES get a response than that something DOESN'T.  We
can't take the time to respond to everything; as far as management is
concerned, netnews is somewhere between a perk and a necessary evil. 
It's a huge time-sink with only minor payback.
