>Who is this "It" who has decided unilateraly to replace net.general by
>mod.generals?  (get it? get it?)

>> I will be moderating the newsgroup.  My uucp address is
>> ihnp4!abnji!nyssa.

>> James C Armstrong, Jnr.   ihnp4!abnji!nyssa

>And who are YOU?  why do YOU get to approve or reject articles?
>What is this?  What's going on here?
