- I agree wholeheartedly with the suggestions for an alt.supermodels.pictures
- newsgroup, BUT, I think we'd have to be careful about the nude pics, else
- people will start talking, and, as so often happens, sites will lose their
- feed to the group. What I'm particularly thinking about is the recent pics
- of Pamela Anderson and Lisa Matthews for example. Does anyone actually
- object to these, or think they belong in a.b.p.e? I think they're OK, but
- anything stronger is definitely not for this group.

- If you haven't got a posting agent, just import the file into the editor
- which you're using to write your article. Ie, in vi:
- <ESC>
- : r <filename> <RETURN>

- Comments anyone?
