As you said, it all goes back to what this community is supposed to be about. The reason I'm on this list (As well as the others I am on...) is because usenet is no longer usable. If you took the bs posts such as those that you described and put them on usenet, you'd never know they were not original posts to usenet. Best regards Marvin Dickens
