Look closer, Einstein, the original writer crossposted it. If you
respond,
your reply goes to the same groups as the original message, unless you
edit
out the extraneous ones. Most of us don't do the editing because it's
not
worth the trouble. Crossposting provides a benefit if the posting is
done
to
groups that make sense. Obviously, in this case, it didn't.

I see it's the "the other guy did it-it's not my fault" defense so
prevalent today.

Douglas, if you are too stupid to figure out your reply is crossposting
and/or too lazy to do something about it, you shouldn't be posting.



Well, you apparently have plenty of time on your hands, Wally. You do it.


Good answer, Doug.

You whine, then say nothing substantive regarding the subject you
brought up.

I didn't whine about it. I simply explained to you why it happens. It's not
worth the effort to edit the newsgroup addresses for every message I send.
The issue doesn't arise often enough to be important.
