NO! NO! NO! NO!

Not another news group for a hot topic...

Just get Larry Wall's rn program, and when you see a 2010 article hit
`K'.  That will spare you reading that article and most of the followups.

Down with new newsgroups!  Up with reasonable news reading software!

(sorry if this borders on a flame)
