Isn't it amazing how a message critical of Epson can vanish soon after
posting to this newsgroup . . . or maybe an Epson sympathiser had a hand in
deleting the message.

I can still see loads of messages in here that are critical of Epson. Hey
if they all dissappeared the NG would be allmost empty!

OK, now, put your foil helmet and repeat after me: no one is cancelling
Usenet posts. It's very, VERY difficult to do this. Maybe impossible.

Can you give us an example of one of these posts? I'll go look it up
for you.

You *do* know that your newsreader marks a message as having been read
and then doesn't show it to you again, don't you? You can tell your
newsreader not to do that, but it makes reading news a whole lot harder.

You can also tell your newsreader to go back and fetch things that it's
already marked as having been read.

You can also go to Google and look for the message in question.

You're an idiot.
