LOL!!.... Wayne blows a vein.

Calm down, Wayne. I know it's maddening, but there's better ways to
deal with it. Since you use xnews and "Xnews happily steals the
scoring system concept from slrn.", you're in luck. Here's my entry
in my slrn score file for rfc:

%BOS
[rec.food.cooking]
Sco: =-9999

This is just an example, but it should do the trick. The cool thing
is the the double colon behind the "Score" (: means "or" and lets
you add all the names your frustrated heart desires. Just copy n'
paste the entire "From" line from the header of those you are less
than thrilled with. I don't know if it will work if used exactly as
written, but should. I've got a list you wouldn't believe and rfc has
become a much nicer place to visit.

Note: lines beginning with % mean nothing and are only comments.

Oh, don't forget to toss those crossposting ******s from the UK.
