Consult your ISP for the deleting newsgroup messages information, god knows what the hell you are using to send that nonsense. Personally, I hate talking frogs, especially Freddie the Frog from New Zoo Review. That whole damn show reminds me of a old friend's father who thought he could play the guitar . . . for hours and hours and hours . . .

Personally, I hate Well, not only god knows. If you take a look at the headers there is one quite interesting: X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 One, that your Newsreader is missing! Oh, and if you like to comment about this and mine, take a close look and you might find a "User-Agent:" line in my header ;) > talking frogs, especially Freddie the Frog from New Zoo Review.

That's what your cancel function is for. And if you don't know how to cancel a message, then you shouldn't go into r.h.o.d anyway, 'cause they'll make fun of you. (Won't you, rhodites? (Yes, you will. And that's an order.)) [followups set] -- Matthew `I just know I've got a brsff somewhere in this suitcase' Thomas http://critique.net.nz/

Prefixed to a noun, indicating that the following text is a token contribution to the nominal topic of the group or list. Employed by some groups and lists as a way of encouraging the group or list to stay on-topic. Examples: ObQuote [alt.quotations]; ObASCII [alt.ascii-art]; obasr [alt.sysadmin.recovery]. I'm thinking of submitting it for the third edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. But first I have to go and find the second edition and make sure it's not there, and then I think I have to find a printed citation somewhere. ttfn -- Matthew `mpt' Thomas http://critique.net.nz/
