The repeated postings all seem to be coming from one site, "ixos."
Until it gets solved, putting

        /Sender: news@ixos.UUCP/h:j

in one's global Kill file works wonders.

 I thought our feed was broken and repeating articles too. Apparently
something must have gone wrong at a major feed site and it is piping
down old stuff at us..... (Or, alternately our rn's have a nasty bug
in them.....)

Nope, we are getting the postings here also.  I have posted a query about these
dup postings in alt.sex, and it seems like several sites in the East Coast are
getting dup postings.  Another virus?

Hmmmmm...I wonder...

Seems that trouble is brewing all over the net with duplicate postings
appearing.  There's been alot of talk about it in other newsgroups.

I received the following note from Eric Clarke, who asked me to repost it. Here
it is:

 I am unable to post to this group.  I have
been gritting my teeth about the various wrong answers that have been posted.
I sent this info to the original poster and ask him to repost it.  He has not,
so, maybe you will.

This information comes from my latest ANIXTER catalog's glossary. It seems to
be about as reliable as I can find.  ANIXTER sells virtually anything you might
want in the way of cable or cable part.  Here is what they have to say:

	_BNC_ A bayonet-locking connector for minature coax; BNC is said to be
	short for bayonet-Neill-Concelman (see N CONNECTOR and C CONNECTOR).
	Contrast with TNC.

	_C CONNECTOR_ A bayonet-locking connector for coax; C is named after
	Carl Concelman.  See also BNC and TNC.

	_N CONNECTOR_ A threaded connector for coax; N is named after Paul
	Neill.  See also BNC and TNC.

	_TNC CONNECTOR_ A threaded connector for minature coax; TNC is said to
	be short for threaded-Neill_Concelman (see N CONNECTOR and C
	CONNECTOR).  Contrast with BNC.

These four definitions in a circular way cover most of the questions that I
have seen people post on this subject in the last week.  By the way I don't
have any connecton with ANIXTER.  They just happened to give me one of their
catalogs at the Uniform show in DC last January.

Okay.  I give up.  Where are (were?) Carl Concelman and Paul Neill and why do
they have connectors named after them?  Why is it called a bayonet when it
doesn't look anything like a knife??? (Actually, I conjecture that it is the
locking mechanism that is similar although I, fortunately, have never seen a
bayonet at close hand in my entire life, nor do I particularly wish to :-) )

Yea, but how many are original posts? ;-)

I learned that BNC may stand for Baby-Neil connector.  Evidently, the Neil
type connector was one big connector.
