If you are not using a programming language, then posting to a
programming group is improper. Since the message has nothing to do
with awk or Perl, posting to those groups is also improper.

You are unnecessarily antagonizing people who are reading the message
in those groups and are trying to make some sense out of it, but can't
because you cross posted to groups that have nothing to do with the
subject.
