You assumption is wrong. Although I am not new to computers or newsgroups, this is the first time that I have posted to a newsgroup using the Microsoft web interface. In advanced options, it give you an opportunity to cross post to other newsgroups. In my first attempt, I entered the newsgroup that I wanted wrong and it would not post. My second attempt, I entered the newsgroup correctly and it posted. Much to my surprises, it also posted in this group. I learn quick and it did not happen again, after all I did apologize. However, you choose to beat a dead horse to death. It sure makes me proud to be a part of newsgroups in general (not) and I am sorry that like others, I was only looking for answers to computer problems encored. I certainly was not expecting to come across the newsgroup police such as yourself. If you are so concerned about NG being overloaded, then you should have accepted my apology and left it like that instead of starting an NG verbal war.

I did accept your apology. You will note that the post you quote was
directed not at you but at CS (whoever he/she may be), who chose to attack me for what I considered a mild protest and in spite of your apology and explanation (which was what really concerned me, as I have been involved in providing feedback to the team that is designing the new Communities interface). As for beating a dead horse, you are the one who has resurrected this thread after several days of silence. -- Suzanne S.
