I truly believe I do not have any company chauvansim. But there is a company out there with sites on the net which has an abnormally high volume of duplicate postings (posting the same thing separately to different groups), mis-postings (house for sale ads to net.general or net.wanted), and postings to too wide a distribution (car for sale to net.something... test messages to net.general (no distribution), etc.) You know who you are. Could we each please see to it that 1) we are educated about distributions and the proper use of groups, 2) our users are educated, and 3) the news administrators of any new sites to which we start sending news get educated? -Fred
