   Actually I have no wish to. I used to crosspost sometimes, but now I   
   find the process mostly annoying and confusing -- particularly as   
   practised by HH (who never attributes properly) and by various political   
   idiots who still intrude onto a.u.e. So when TB tells me I can't post   
   something I've written because it's going to two or more newsgroups, I   
   know how to remove all but the one I want.
