Ive stayed out of this as long as I can... Pete, Not all of us have great
access to newsgroups. Some of us are on fixed incomes and cannot afford
access thru pay usenet sites... Most of us probaly get our usenet thru our
isps which usualy do not have more then 24 hours retention or so many
posts...... I know these floods keep knocking a lot of the other great
posts off my server as I see the replies to them but the original posts got
flooded out..... It is not a matter of just not downloading..... It is
just plain inconsiderate.......

You might want to have a word with some of the laddies on your side. They
seem to think that the best way to get co-operation is to lie about and
insult those of us on the other side. In my experience this tends to harden
attitudes. Certainly it has hardened mine.

A good feed costs as little as $8/month. A good newsreader costs under $30,
and may even be _free_. (Forte Agent is $30, Forte Free Agent and MTNW are
_free_.) And, news flash for those who depend on their ISPs for a newsfeed...
thanks to that idiot in New York, many American ISPs are going to be dropping
USENET feeds Real Soon Now. Y'all had best find a cheap feed which is
independent of your ISP, and be quick about it, or you may lose access to
USENET... period.
