I could be mistaken, but I think "cross posting" would be to enter a
separate post to EACH newsgroup thread, separate from any other newsgroup
thread...

This avoids the following:
Including multiple newsgroups in the posting of a single post--causes any
reply to that post to be sent to ALL the newsgroups that single post has
been posted to...

Warmest regards,
John


Take the trouble to do a web search on the phrase "cross post" and
you'll get not only a definition but an explaination of why it's better
than multiple posting.
