Has anyone else noticed that a lot of the traffic in Unix-Wizards is also
posted to other groups like net.periphs or one of the net.bugs groups?
Since there seems to be a consensus that net.unix-wizards is getting out
of hand, and something should be done, I think this is a good time to
look at this.  Perhaps if folks would refrain from copying articles to 
net.unix.wizards when they are discussing bugs, micros, terminals,
or subjects that can be posted elsewhere, there would be a noticable
reduction in the amount of wizards traffic.

Then, of course, the news software might eventually recognize related
articles and make it possible to skip all articles on the same unwanted
topic....  (he said wishfully)
