Ignore the ignorant fuckers!
I'm sick of all this shite and remember full well, the time when the
Usenet Gods finally agreed that the fact that a test post gets to
alt.test does not mean that it propogates to alt.comp.land.php and it
was felt that so long as the subject header stated the fact that it was
a test post and to please ignore should be sufficient. Then again,
there are people who have to touch something that has a 'wet paint' sign
on it and something that would have nothing to do with their daily lives
but they have to touch it anyway!
The Usenet Guidelines were updated at the point when DejaNews took to
archiving everything, which, if you know recent history, Google dropped
the ball and lost a lot of the archives.
