Newsgroup server screwup

Just want to apologize in advance if/when a flood of old posts (up to 2
weeks old) from me hits the group all at once. On July 1st the admins
here did something to the newsserver which caused it to stop receiving
or sending updates. I alerted them to it, and a couple days later in
got fixed. It wasn't for another week that I started to suspect that
the reason everyone was ignoring my posts was not perhaps because they
weren't interested in them (nobody likes me, boo-hoo :-().

I took a look over at google groups (where I'm posting this now) and
noticed that none of my posts were shown. It dawned on me at that
point that while the server was receiving posts, it wasn't propogating
them out. I've alerted the admins to it, so I'm afraid that whenever
they do manage to get it sorted out, my old posts may all come through
at once (there's only about a dozen or so, I think).

Thanks, at least I gave you a heads up! I didn't even realize it had
been fixed until just before I saw this post ;-).
