It doesn't make sound business sense, The dates of this posting demonstrate one problem that is inherent in the news, that is that sending them out from a country may be delayed radically, or news may even not go out at all. It is seems highly problable that the news from Finland have not gone out for 3-4 weeks, and now that the problem has (hopefully) been sorted out, there are (or will be) a bunch delayed postings from a stockpile in Finland. Since I am often writing to this group informing about programs available from chyde.uwasa.fi, Vaasa, Finland, I wanted to let you to know that the system is still on, and that some of the older news may be in the offing. (Personally, I am not involved with the management of the news system, so the technical details of this escapade are beyond me, and my direct control.) ...................................................................
