From article <182@chip.UUCP>, by mparker@chip.UUCP (M. D. Parker):
= Greetings...
= Within the past 24 hour period, I have received a flurry of messages changing
= groups from moderated to unmoderated.  Just a bit later I have received 
= messages from another site changing some of these same groups back to
= moderated status.  What is going on?

I received the same messages, also a whole bunch of create newsgroups.  The
newsgroups already existed here (mostly).  I suspect that a new node has
come online and that the news admin is not really clear on 'inews -C'.  It
probably won't happen again and isn't worth flaming about.

(Also - I did the same thing but my feed caught them before they got out
 to the net.  So I tend to be a little forgiving ... )
