I find it sad so many people can't spell "lose."

I should remind all that these newsgroups are also fed in and out of packet radio BBS stations and read and replied to over RF in nearly all countries
utilizing packet BBS's.

I find it sad that amateur radio operators would use packet for usenet
traffic.

Sadder yet is the fact that the OP doesn't seem to realize that it's the
responsibility of the control operator of the originating system to make
sure that the traffic is suitable for sending over amateur radio.

And saddest of all is the OP's seemingly random selection of newsgroups,

I've figured this out. :-)

The original posting is from 1995, when people still cared about packet radio
and to many usenet was new and exciting. The reason it took so long is that
it was behind a posting of a shack photo sent as a .BMP (windows bitmap file)
and it took 15 years to be transmitted.

It then ended up in packet to usenet gateway, which added the modern headers.
