I would expect to do reload newsfeeds, but when you want to just kick a
single feed, is this not what "flush" is for? The only time I have used
"begin" is when I have first used "drop" on that site. I make be doing
that all wrong, but then my innd isn't crashing when I do that, so maybe
I'm doing something right ;-)

Is there a code assumption that when you begin a site it's not already
running?
