------- TO USERS OF THE GOOGLE GROUPS INTERFACE:

A recent change at Google Groups is causing its users to create
messages
that don't quote any previous material at all, which is baffling to
our
readers. If you're going to use the Google interface to reply to
Usenet
posts, please perform this extra step:

(1) click "show options" next to the poster's name, and
(2) click "Reply" in the line:
Reply | Reply to Author| Forward | Print | Individual Message

This will put quotations and attributions in your message, just as
other newsreader programs do.
