What has possessed ...mtune!jhc to create over 60 new newsgroups? I do not recall seeing voting for any of this take place on the net. Could some one please inform him of the proper procedure for creating new newsgroups? signed: a site admin who doesn't appreciate all the junk mail from this creation -- j UUCP: ...ihnp4!msudoc!eecae!lawitzke ARPA: lawitzke@eecae.ee.msu.edu (35.8.8.151)

I think not. SO DON'T COMPLAIN, DELETE THEM! -- Bill Wisner, HASA ..ihnp4!killer!billw 'An it harms none, do what thou will.' Everything in this message may be wrong.
