I usually credit this to the nature of the Usenet. Sometimes followups to articles appear before the original, and sometimes articles expire locally before I ever see the original. I've actually noticed the reverse situation, though. There are articles (Usenet, never mail) that I am s_u_r_e_ I have read once that I see again. This usually happens in the larger groups that I read, so it is entirely possible that people are reposting the same articles because they didn't see their words immediately. -- Jack Vinson jvinson@cheux.ecs.umass.edu "Narf!" - Pinky
