I reported this problem to Google Groups. It seems to reside there. The obvious cure? Stop posting via Google groups! Google has been trying to kill Usenet for years. Any problem that is being caused by them is highly unlikely to get fixed by them. Vaughn

USENET is still in very wide use. The worst thing that happened were the binary news groups. That upped the bandwidth and storage a bunch while both were still expensive. Now USENET servers are run pretty economically considering the other bandwidth hogs out there. The spammers have stopped using USENET for e-mail harvesting. What I like about USENET is the push. No forum hunting. Not as limited as lists. More engaging than RSS feeds. Then there are the flames;^) Yeah, GG's new interface is no favorite. Frank Whiteley Frank Whiteley

Looks like GG is not propagating postings again for at least 13 hours.
