      I couldn't get mail through to somebody on another site. What
      should I do?
      -- Eager Beaver

Dear Eager:
      No problem, just post your message to a group that a lot of people
     read. Say, "This is for John Smith. I couldn't get mail through so I'm
     posting it. All others please ignore."
      This way tens of thousands of people will spend a few seconds scanning
     over and ignoring your article, using up over 16 man-hours their collective
     time, but you will be saved the terrible trouble of checking through usenet
     maps or looking for alternate routes. Just think, if you couldn't distribute
     your message to 9000 other computers, you might actually have to (gasp) call
     directory assistance for 60 cents, or even phone the person. This can cost
     as much as a few DOLLARS (!) for a 5 minute call!
      And certainly it's better to spend 10 to 20 dollars of other people's
     money distributing the message than for you to have to waste $9 on an overnight
     letter, or even 25 cents on a stamp!
     or Don't forget. The world will end if your message doesn't get through,
     so post it as many places as you can.
