On my system (here in Canada...) 38 out of 168 articles in comp.sys.amiga.tech have a Distribution: of either 'usa' or 'na'. What gives? Are Europeans, Australians, Asians, etc. suddenly second class citizens? And for you guys putting 'usa', add Canadians to that list. What did we ever do to deserve this? -- Grandpa Charnock's Law: | C.

Oh, you *are* paranoid! Until recently, I used to put ``usa'' (later ``na'', now nothing) as distributions on articles I would post advertising stuff available via anonymous ftp simply because very few persons outside the usa could ftp to us. This has now changed and I don't bother with distributions anymore... That's one case... ...tad
