It's probably overloaded remembering all those newsgroups you just
crossposted into it.

Jesus Monroy never posted to a sensible subgroups and never will do

News articles should *NOT* be placed on any wrong groups either but you
never figured this out.

Ditto the list of newsgroups you send stuff too.

Please don't send that to all the groups as well 8)

I don't mind what you said just where you said it.

I wish Jesus Monroy's posting habits would become that.

Does anyone have any usenet netiquette education tools they could throw out
to Mr Monroy ?

Jesus: Do us all a favour. Post this to the groups it belongs in. I don't
see any OS/2 or MACH support. No Linux support, no minix support. I also
find it amusing you even posted it to comp.os.386bsd.bugs.
