Thaat's funny, I have only posted 268 files over the last 2 days.


That's about what I thought. Those of us using real newsreaders can see the
_files_, not the _parts_ of the files. At the current time 36 files appear to
be either corrupt or incomplete. If there are enough .pars this shouldn't be
a problem, but if not, I may request a few reposts.


Same here.

Because I didn't feel like uploading 5,100 jpg files. I posted an
intent to flood notice. If you prefer jpgs, go out an fine these
files.

It is a long time since I read a binary group's charter, but IIRC, it is
customary to restrict floods to 250 posts per group per day. I have over
8,300
headers from you in the space of a day. Some are reposts, e.g. part 31 was
posted twice -- 17 seconds apart, from the header information.

I am glad Giganews does not count headers in the bandwidth I buy.

A man spoke frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart!"
"Is this her first child?" the doctor asked.
"No, you idiot!" the man shouted. "This is her husband!"
