A relative of mine received his issue of the May-June 2000 Mania Magazine late last month and it did include the disclaimer. The disclaimer was featured on the last page under his address. I will be posting a scan of the page before 10:00 EST. -Rich (26 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.announce)

|
|
(...) Actually, that's only about 1/3 of the reason. Separating news from the main site also helps solve a bunch of current problems and avoid a bunch of new ones. For example, having news.lugnet.com distinct from www.lugnet.com now makes it much (...) (26 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

This is just a quick "heads-up" to let you know that some things are going to be moving around a bit on the LUGNET webserver. In order to make room for a newer, friendlier LUGNET homepage while keeping the current news-focused homepage easily (...) (26 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.admin.general) !!

(...) BTW, when I went looking for the message, I first tried "LDAO 2.1.4". As you know, that didn't work. I found the message by searching for "LDAO Steve Bliss Win98". It's all in the keywords.

Another caveat: if there are any errors (like, for example, if a message is addressed to a group which doesn't exist), it won't tell you that on the preview page, because it doesn't really know about any errors until after it actually submits (...)

I was trying to find information about Steve Bliss' LDraw Add On program. It's version 2.1.4. When I did a search on the CAD newsgroups for 2.1.4 and "2.1.4" I got zero hits.
