**** THIS IS A BOOSTER ****
A prior newgroup message was sent.

For your newsgroups file:
alt.binaries.food Binary food posts

Charter:
In the good old days when I created alt, no charters were
ever needed.

That worked well then and should work well now.

This booster is an
attempt to fix an error in the creation of this ng in that
isc.org had
problems over the years and did not archive the control but
did archive
the rm's. "


Maybe you could show that to Airnews and get them to add
it.
