HOW can you call net.micro.pc the "WRONG!!!!!" place without offering
a reasonable alternative?  There is no net.binaries.pc, or other truly
suitable group.  net.sources is a much more global group than is net.micro.pc.

Whatever HE is missing?  Perhaps a bit of self-examination is in order.

It also reached a number of sites in perfectly clean condition.  There
are no errors in the .arc file I ended up with.  Well rob, are you
volunteering to moderate mod.sources.pc & mod.binaries.pc?  Without
these, there's no way way to clean up net.micro.pc.

Whatever that means...

Why are there so many people out there that love to jump on someone
else for what they feel is an inappropriate submission?  Why do so
few of these people have constructive suggestions?  The original
submission was, without doubt, much more appropriate than the response
it elicited.
