Ok, so I admidt, I didn't notice the 'k' key myself for a very long time.
I mean, rn is nice, but the directions is pretty cryptic.  I never knew what
a global kill file was.  Well, that is, I didn't until I started reading 
comp.sys.amiga at 1200 baud.  I learned real quickly.  This I then pass on
to all who haven't learned about it yet.

If you touch the 'K' key (not the 'k' key) when you are looking at an article
it will not just move you to the next article, it will not just delete all of
the current followups to that article, it will place the subject into a file
that will clear out that subject FOREVER!!!

That means that Copy Protect (although I am reading that thread) will never
come back, you don't have to know what is being said.  And when you see:

   What kind of computer should I buy??

sent to comp.sys.amiga, comp.atari.st, comp.sys.ibm, comp.sys.mac, you just
hit that little 'K' key, and the flood of follow-ups disappear!  

And!!  (here is the good part)

If you don't see the flood of stupid messages you tend not to be angered
by them and don't end up posting a stupid message yourself.

(religion, just say "no!")
