  OK Blair, et alia, here is the problem I have with killfiles. Again I am 
on a VAX and using VNEWS. 

1) I added an Abianarticle to my killfile ("K"). Maybe 3 messages with exactly
the same subject were killed.
2) I edited the killfile so that instead of saying 
 /TIME HAS INERTIA. Abian responds to God
  it just says 
 /TIME HAS INERTIA.
3) Now when I first go into sci.physics, and type "d" (for directory)
ONLY THOSE ARTICLES WITH "TIME HAS INERTIA." as the subject (and NOTHING else)
are killed.

 So the question stands : How can I tailor the killfile to get rid all articles
 beginning with "TIME HAS INERTIA." but with other stuff at the end. Don't
 tell me to get another newsreader unless that is the ONLY solution; and if it
 is, have the graciousness of specifying where said newsreader might be 
 obtained.

 Thanks.
