Not if you need to test whether you can post to a *particular* newsgroup.

For example what kind of survival skills does one need when the
heating system needs replacement/repair, the breaker for the fridge
circuit has cra**ed out, it's uncertain certain whether the well is
either dry of water or the pump has burnt out? Or why does that door
not close properly?
At this time of the old year, with regards to all readers/posters and
with many thanks for the hundreds of discussions providing opportunity
for one to be able to learn from this news group.

While this is slightly amusing; it is IMO, just another one of those
patronising statements by people who consider themselves 'Literary and
educated' and everyone else a cut below them? i.e. If you don't
understand something make fun of it.
