please establish local news groups in sys files
Sorry this is going everywhere, but, as you see, I don't have a
choice.  Would all netnews administrators in NJ please fix their
netnews sys files to forward nj.all to all NJ sites?  Also, would all
BTL sites please forward foo.all to all foo sites where foo is your
location code?  Would anyone who I am addressing who is too lazy to do
what I asked please, at least, type "r- \n go to hell \n ^D" so that I
can tell who has and who hasn't complied?  (A positive acknowledgement
would be gratefully accepted also...)

As long as I'm here, I encourage every site to establish local area
newsgroups if they have not done so already.  I don't want to hear
about what movie is playing at your student center anymore.
