Then articles to those distributions will not go out. If you want to force a group to be local only, then you can still call it local.announcements or whatever. The point here is that these groups will be in a minority compared to groups that exist at all distribution levels like "science-fiction" etc. Let's go for K news!!!!!! -- Brad Templeton - Waterloo, Ontario (519) 886-7304
