DNEWS, as I understand it, isn't meant to keep up with a full-usenet
feed. That is one of the benefits of it.
DNEWS SUCKS -- and I say that with good intentions. It isn't a
value-judgement. DNEWS sucks the news. Really. Perhaps we should end this
thread. Or, you might want to visit rogerk@QueerNet.ORG's site to get a
better handle on the ins and out of this sucking action. =:0
As I said before: to each his/her own! ;)
Over and out from these quarters.
