But I get really annoyed at mail from these self-appointed net administrators, like these: >From: ihnp4!utah-cs!swt@utah-gr.UTAH-CS.ARPA (Spencer W. Thomas) >To: ihnp4!drutx!trb >Subject: Re: Animated Christmas Card (late, but worth posting!) >Newsgroups: net.micro.mac > >A number of the MAC programs you posted appeared on this list no longer >than a month ago. Pretty short time for a reposting. > >=Spencer >({ihnp4,decvax}!utah-cs!thomas, thomas@utah-cs.ARPA) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Look Spencer, not every site gets all the news, and we didn't even get net.micro.mac until two weeks ago!

And now, to another self-appointed net.administrator: --- > >From: ihnp4!wucs!plus5!hokey >Subject: Re: Disk Drive Test utility program > >Please post sources to a sources newsgroup!
