Re: Announcing Rare Entries contest MSB36



He didn't say they couldn't post in a public forum, he said that if they
posted certain things in a public forum they would be disqualified from a
privatly run quiz. Apparently that doesn't bother you. I chose not to be
disqualified so I chose not to discuss the quiz in the news group.

PS: appropriate choice of anus for an answer.
