much deleted saying that the article is causing trouble.

Dave - try to use rn to read the article and cancel it with a 'C' - that
sends out a message that will can the article on any system.

I would add to the people that write the news software that this might be
another case where the "squelch" message capability would be useful - i.e.
put out a global kill for this message that will intercept it the moment
it arrives on any site, even if the squelch gets there ahead of the
actual article.

Just my $0.02 worth.
