WIERD! How did THIS get posted to LUGNET?:

<http://news.lugnet.com/robotics/?n=22406>

i saw this while looking at the latest news on Lugnet, nite of tues 4/13/2004,
11:24pm EDT USA.  just thought you should see it if it's any software/server
problem.  i seem to remember seeing spam like this before on LUGNET, but i
didn't pay any attention at the time, & so i can't remember specifics, and don't
know where to begin wading thru posts to find it.  i'm spotlighting it ONLY so
appropriate action can be taken by you, Todd, or other moderators.  sorry if
it's not kosher, but i want to make sure it gets fixed.

From the robotics page:
"Note: The lugnet.robotics newsgroup and the lugnet.robotics@lugnet.com mailing
lists are gatewayed with the lego-robotics@crynwr.com mailing list."

This means anything posted to lego-robotics@crynwr.com appears in
lugnet.robotics, which is most likely the reason for this message appearing. Not
much can be done about it from the Lugnet end.

Yeah, is one of those things that, unfortunately, you have to live with whilst
using the internet.  I for one don't mind putting up with these sporadic SPAM
posts in .robotics frpm crynwr 'cause the 99.999 percent of the rest of the
posts are really worth it.  Is one of my favourite NG to lurk in :)
