[I asked for advice of 'expire -r' and fixing bad history file]

Well, I tried running 'expire -r' again, this time after I got rid of
the bad history files and letting the program run longer.  Our news is
so large that it took quite a few hours before any results were really
seen.

So, it looks as if it made the new history file ok.  But, I won't really
know until after expire runs tonight.

Oh, how I love people who munch on news history files.  :-(
