Home » Best Bits

These are the best bits, postings that members of the group feel to be of lasting value, culled from the group and placed here for posterity, and to give a flavour of the group to newcomers. Anyone on the group can nominate a posting. The maintainer of this website makes no editorial selection; the choice of which articles are archived here is entirely that of the group's users.

Articles are presented in plain text, fixed-width font, as they would have originally appeared on the group. Headers and sigs are removed, but quoted material is left in where appropriate.

[Editor's Note: I've initially populated this list from the Wayback Machine's cache of the original ukrc best bits, then maintained by Rhiannon MacFie Miller.]

Note that the author is the author of the Usenet article which is archived here, not necessarily the author of the material itself (which may be quoted from another source).

You can view the list grouped by category (the default), alphabetically by title, alphabetically by author or in date order (newest first).
