If it's posted weekly, there is a bigger likelyhood that people will 
actually read it. As Dave Proctor states, some ISPs have article retention 
dates of less than the fortnightly goal stated above, some news s(w)ervers 
hold articles for less than a few days at best.

I'd be happy to see any other comments on this. In the meantime, I will 
build a script tonight & test it (via appropriate test newsgroup) - May 
have something workable by the weekend (Sunday 0:00 sounds like a good 
posting time). If the frequency we conclude to here turns out to be too 
small or too large it will be a 5 second modification.
