Thanks. What I don't think you realize is that usenet is not permanent 
storage... older posts scroll off as new ones appear. In addition, different 
ISP's keep differeng numbers of older posts on the server. Finally, depending 
on what news client you use and how it is configured, it will only retrieve 
the last "xxx" posts no matter how many are on the server and will not save 
the ones it has already downloaded unless you have it configured that way.

Giganews has posts stretching back to last August and Rubywand has posted 
this series twice since then, most recently last week. Unfortunately, that 
was before I looked in here, so it didn't appear in my client. However, I was 
able to reconfigure and go back and  grab it once I realized what you were 
talking about.

Never the less, a copy must be stored on the web somewhere and that is a much 
less transient reference to give out :-)
