I know that sounds like a silly title, I KNOW why. I am wondering what different sites who have NETNEWS online and backed by management did to justify it. There is a lot of resistance due to the usual considerations; DASD, CPU and general "is this something we should be doing" kinds of questions. I'd just like some general comment and feedback. Who knows? Maybe i'll have something to point to out of it. Thanks very much. Michael Harpe Systems Programmer I University of Louisville
