- Hmm. I've been following this group since July or August of '92.
- Prior to, roughly, November the number (subjectively) of posts from
- F### hosts has gone from "hard to notice" to "hard to notice anything
- but". Lately, I ignore posts from F### hosts (unless the Subj: looks
- really good!) so I can't say for recent posts,but as of a month or so ago
- it seemed that 2/3 of the posts were not "news" but "mail". That's
- why folks on "this side" are so irate.

- I tried that at the beginning. Most (not all) come back with warnings
- from a UUCP gate that the "machine is unreachable".
