<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> WOW! What an idiot I am! There alread IS a celiac newsgroup on Usenet. It is: alt.support.celiac. It was created in 1998. Someone E-Mailed me with that information. I subscribe to three ISPs and not one of those three carry that newsgroup. That's how I made that mistake. Here's what has to be done. If you want to be able to read that newsgroup and post to it, you have to ask the system administrator of your ISP to carry that newsgroup. [log in to unmask] (Fred Cherry) Baron of Gray Matter
