And if they are, they will be propmtly returned, or NETCOM
will lose a lot of business.  NETCOM promises to carry any 
newsgroup that a customer asks for, and that is exactly

the "pro-pot" in the header means pro *medical* pot, and not
necessarily pro-recreational use of any substance, so everybody should
be "pro-pot."
