Cross posts are more tolerable than multi-posts, which latter is what the
OP 
actually did.  Please use the correct term.  In fact, cross-posting
(useless 
as it is between clj.help and clj.programmer) with follow-up set to a
single 
group is the recommended alternative to multi-posting.

To the OP:  Do not multi-post.

"Multi-posting" is the annoying placement of (nearly) the same message 
independently in different newsgroups, thus fragmenting the conversation
and 
obscuring parts of it to readers of each group.  "Cross-posting" is
placement 
of the same message into several groups at once, by specifying multiple 
destinations /at once/.  This is also a bad practice, in pro****tion to the

number of groups involved.  Two is a reasonable maximum.  "Follow-up" is
like 
"Reply-to"; it specifies a single group as the destination for replies. 
If 
you specify more than one newsgroup, do specify a single follow-up group.

Read the "Mini-FAQ" post from David Alex Lamb, and the links to which it 
points.  It explains how to use these newsgroups.  It reposts every four
or 
five days, so there's no excuse not to read it.
