Assuming someone picks it up yes.
however, I 'm going to the Microsoft newsgroups
and I think most MVP's are also?
(Just a guess)

You missed the point of my post entirely.

It was simply the case that Russ's post was the 3rd or 4th occurrence
in a very short space of time of a new thread alerting people to the
imminent discontinuation of this group from the msnews.microsoft.com
servers.

Since Russ wouldn't be so daft as to excessively multi-post, I was
implying that the EMP was a result of the crappiness of the new forum...

IOW, I was trying to "make a funny". 0/10 for me...
