I doubt that it's the most widely read, but I do suspect that many people who read it won't post to it. There is some concern as to your co-workers finding out, etc. I suspect the same sort of paranoia affects other groups (notably net.motss). In some cases it may even be justified. On the other hand, I am reminded of the exchange in THE PRODUCERS which Zero Mostel suggests that Gene Wilder should spend the afternoon in the park instead of going back to work: Wilder: But what if someone from the office should see me? Mostel: Then they'd be here also, and what are they doing here instead of at work? In other words, people reading this group aren't in a position to criticize people for posting here. Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of areas in New England. The prime poster for this group (Pete LaMaster) has unfortunately departed to a non-Unix site (boo! hiss!) and taken his expertise with him. Evelyn C. Leeper ...{ihnp4, houxm, hocsj}!ahuta!ecl
