Agreed !  Many replies were sent to Wrong lists.

Original poster & respondents abused stable@ & questions@
        Cross posting 2 lists un-necessarily, despite:

                        "C.1.3 List Charters
                        Rules of the road:
                        No posting should be made to more than 2
                        mailing lists, and only to 2 when a clear
                        and obvious need ..."

                There was a desire, as always, but no need.  (so I
                removed cc: stable@ on this post, to avoid this
                post also breaking that rule, (on the basis that
                stable@ readership are more likely to already know
                about Not cross posting, & using the Right list,
                as questions@ started as a target list to point
                clueless new users to, from /etc/motd.  (It was
                expected as users grew experienced, they'd subscribe
                other lists themed to their interests.)))
