I have not subscribed to TEST, nor have I ever read any of the messages therein.
My News.seen entry for test is "TEST! 0".  However (and annoyingly) I get asked
whether I want to subscribe to TEST each and every time I use READNEWS.  This is
a bug.

(9 lines)

I was reading item 2 in a news topic.
I hit space and got item 3, but changed my mind 'cause i wanted to see
item 2 again, so i hit 'up' arrow, this worked and i space bar'd my way
through it again.
On hiting space bar on the last page of item 2 i jumped on to item 4.
What heppened to item 3? (I got there using up arrow)
Is this a bug? I think so.... fix it?

This should now be fixed.
