Sure!  It's fairly easy to do and won't take but a moment of your time.




What, you think *I'd* tell you how to do it?  But you'll miss all my great
articles in misc.jobs.misc!  And darling's insightful commentary in
alt.music.industrial!  And rogue's fine followups in comp.org.eff.talk!
And revpk's expert opinions in sci.skeptic!  And swinokur's helpful
instructions in comp.sys.amiga.*!  And kml's humorous banter in rec.humor!

I had to post this, because techie's output to phl.general (and
cross-posted groups) represents about 5% of this site's output.  We're less
of one voice than, say, Drexel University, because we're a public access
site.  Practically anyone can subscribe here and wind up posting to the net;
thankfully, I see everything that leaves here, and it's typically VERY high
in quality.  We're a responsible net site, I guarantee.  (And when you
graduate and lose that nice free University account, son, you'll come
crying to us.  It's happened time and time again.)
