Postings which are longer than about 100 lines are not encouraged, but neither are they explicitly banned. Further discussion on a post is also welcomed. Discussion on anything which isn't 'the news', such as last night's episode of Babylon 5 or what one gets up to in one's shed, is most *un*welcome BINARIES Unwelcome. If you do have a current events type binary that you wish to share with the readership, then please place it on a ftp/http site, & post a pointer to it in the group instead. ADVERTISING Unwelcome, unless it is for something of *direct* relevance to the topic of the newsgroup. Headers of adverts for postings such as MAKE MONEY FAST that may inadvertantly find their way onto the group [remainder of text deleted by folder-shrink.pl]
