Posting pictures on this group

That said, I wonder if feelings will change with the increasing
popularity of broadband connections. As long as this does not start
filling with SPAM, I personally would not mind a few aviation-related
pics from time to time.

Speaking as a news administrator with 20 years experience, I say broadband
has absolutely nothing to do with it. It's server space, and you let in
one binary and soon the group will be nothing but pictures, and then I'll
have to boot it from my servers.

A: Seemed logical -- I didn't have any real intelligence.

You too, eh?

The network provider I worked for had to outsource its newsfeed in about
1999 because it couldn't keep up with the server load associated with binary
usenet posts. Most of it was porn, (which, strangely, almost all sourced
from Salt Lake City.)
