re: usenet liability; Mark Callow is quite right. It turns out that one of the very major factors in becoming a publisher these days is being able to both hire very good libel lawyers, but also being able to financially withstand suits in general. You see, once you're sued, you are going to lose ($$$ for defending it) even if you win. That's the real implicit threat here... still hopefull, ernie harkins
