Yea.

Although I had not yet unsubscribed to general, the long article on smoking

did it. Seems that a fair number of submissions to the net lately are

deliberate attempts to irritate other net users, especially in net.general and

net.jokes.  The only answer to such behavior is to ignore it, or remove the

temptation.

Remove net.general.
