You must be offering the net a free subscription, and only posting
the price to tell everyone what he or she will save.  Certainly you aren't
using USENET commercially, as that is a no-no.  And even if you were,
you would not be so stupid a to use samba for that purpose, as samba
EXPLICITLY states that samba is not to be used for any business other
than samba business.  Fork out the subscriptions or the apologies, pal.
Start with the apology to the net, then the apology to the SysOps of
samba for going against a rule shown to you EVERY time you log in.
 
If you are nice about it, maybe samba WON'T delete your account for
disregarding the rules, and MAYBE the net won't flame you to the stone
age.
 
Of course, the net could say screw second chances, and start filling
your mailbox now.  Then samba will delete you just to save their own
disk space.  Hmmm...you'd better apologize FAST, pal...that crowd looks
hungry for blood, and they have flame-throwers.
 
Howard Wilson II, non-spokesperson for the Net or samba, but someone
with the brains to follow a simple rule on an otherwise totally free
system.
