[net.general] Support your LOCAL news!!!

Why ON EARTH do you folks INSIST on blasting your STUPID messages ALL
OVER the already OVERLOADED net-news system!?!?!?!?!?!

If you want to sell your car, and you live in New Jersey, post it onto
nj.auto or ne.for-sale or whatever you have available.  These ads have
absolutely no interest to readers in Arizona or British Columbia!
(There may be exceptions to this - specialty cars, for example - but no
one in their right mind would want to buy your rust-eaten, oil-eating,
gas-guzzling wreck for 10 cents, much less whatever it is you're asking
for it...)

And if you're looking for a can recycling place in Illinois, don't ask
the whole network where it is. Look it up in the 'phone book (they do
issue 'phone books at Bell Labs, don't they?) or post your request to a
local news group.

Your cooperation in this matter will be greatly appreciated
