Yeah, Usenet seemed to be a bit constipated for the past few days.
Posts went in, but almost nothing was coming out. 

But now we've got a flood of backlogged posts, all at once and in a
messy torrent that's better just flushed away than analyzed. ;-)


(I hear they applied they juiced the server with a  "Post Retention
Update: New Enhancement" patch. That always seems to get things
flowing again, in my experience. ;-)







Sorry. I'll stop it with these shitty jokes.
