ENOUGH already! Thus far, during yesterday and today, you've cross-posted 22
messages in 7 different news-groups and none of them have been the least bit
relevant to the subject matter of any of those news-groups. Please take your

Cross-posting to 7 news-groups is, in itself, a display of poor taste.
