I read all three of the newsgroups indicated in the Newsgroups: line of this article. I've noticed some confusing facts: it seems that most people who post to net.unix also post to net.unix-wizards. Why is this? Why do the followups always appear in both groups (I realize that this is due to the Newsgroups: line in the original)? Is mod.unix the appropriate forum for this stuff? I get kind of tired of seeing the same articles in both groups. Apparently readnews/vnews has the smarts not to show you an article if you've already seen it in another group. I'm using rn - does it have the same capability (Larry?)? Does everyone else just take this for granted, or is there some more confusion out there?
