 WG> the day when people were still running un-cancel bots.

the cancel-bots are still running around... that group doesn't appear in
the list of 41000+ that i just got from one of the servers i read on...
there are, however, a lot of david.stark entries... i'm surprised that the
one you mention above is not still in the list... i remember someone, not
their name, who wouldn't let any alt.* groups be rmgrouped... AIR, he set
up something that newgrouped any rmgrouped area when the rmgroup was
received... thanks to him, alt.* is much worse than it should even have
been...
