Ever since info-mac went to digest form, I've grown used to the frustration of
seeing "[This program has been archived on SUMEX]" instead of the hex source of
some really nifty program.  However, in many cases the program turns up
eventually on net.sources.mac, or I get it on disk from somebody in a local
users' group.

Recently, however, I experienced the new frustration of seeing "[This program
has been archived on SUMEX]" in fa.info-mac, followed by an article in
net.sources.mac telling me the same thing!  %*&@%*!!!  (The particular instance
was the "Watch" desk accessory.)

Can somebody somewhere please figure out a way to formalize the posting to
net.sources.mac of new Mac programs mentioned in fa.info-mac and archived at 
SUMEX?  Either that, or tell me how to get to SUMEX from Usenet (which I am 
pretty sure is impossible).

P.S.  I'm posting this complaint because I don't think it would do any 
good to send mail to "info-mac@uw-beaver", the poster of the articles in
net.sources.mac that incited this flame.
