The author was quite right, on all counts. Instead of bitching and moaning about Spaf's and the others decisions about the newsgroups, how about presenting sound reasons for keeping them? And how about stopping for a moment to consider the services you get from Usenet that you wouldn't if it weren't for the "network fascists", "backbone cabal",, etc. Good Lord, people, grow up! At the very least, give Spaf a break, at least for a week or two...he's a great fellow, and besides, he's a newlywed, for cryin' out loud!! :-) Roy
