By the way, we received all of the below-referenced (a.m.c-h) posts here

that your posts are archived for the rest of humanity, consider cc:ing

Got questions about alt.music.chapel-hill? Curious why you only
ever seem to see *replies* to posts, but never the original post?
The answer to these and (someday) many other questions can be
