Damn, I was hoping that we would be seeing fewer of these. I guess some
people just don't get it. Maybe they just post in newsgroups, without
ever reading any posts first or checking the FAQ!
Well, let's hope in the future we will see less and less of these posts
in our little community. But then again we have a few people who don't
give a (fill in the word(s) of your choice) about anyone else but
themselves. To quote Michael Moorcock/Hawkwind: "Think only of
yourself... ONLY OF YOURSELF!"

news being down for 10 minutes yesterday evening. Why, because they
were installing a "binary filter". This software will filter out posts
with binaries which are not in their proper alt. group. Some people
just don't understand that posting binaries outside the proper
newsgroups causes problems world wide. At least I am lucky and have a
provider who does get must of the alt. hierarcy (excepting those used
soley for posting pirated software). With the large amount of
newsgroups and traffic, ISP's can not find the diskspace to retrieve
everything. That's one of the major reasons that binaries are not to be
posted in "discussion" groups.
But, then again some people will never get it. They are the same type
of people that if invited to your house, would rather shit in your
living room than get up and use the properly designed facilities.
