I like the reposting service.  It is a lot less work for me to get his post
than to look up the original article, which is important when I am short on
time (which is most of the time).

I don't think that the bandwidth is all that much to worry about.  If it is,
however, perhaps you can suggest a way to create alt.sources articles which
are links to articles in other newsgroups, as if the original had been
crossposted.

Some people can read the news, but not e-mail or ftp.

In 1869, the waffle iron was invented, thus solving the annoying tendency of
waffles to wrinkle in the dryer.                        No new tale to tell.
