If North American backbone sites adhered -to a policy to shut such sites down, removing the financial advangage, -it would become easier for Europeans to get the laws passed to allow a -U.S.-style usenet. Oh, right, why didn't *I* think of that? I'm sure that if we cut off their news feeds, all the governments of Europe would *instantly*, on bended *knees*, divest their monopoly phone systems, invite the US carriers in to do battle on their turf, and give out Trailblazers as door prizes... -- Larry Campbell The Boston Software Works, Inc. campbell@bsw.com 120 Fulton Street wjh12!redsox!campbell Boston, MA 02146
