You are correct, but sometimes it might be faster getting the article
from the local newsserver instead. And sometimes articles manage to
get purged from altavista before my newsserver, dunno know why, must be
me who has strange tastes :-)
I don't want a change, just the possibility, freedom, freedom of
choice.. uhm well.. then I also have the freedom to hack it
myself.. brr.
