I made the call then to absolutely no avail. -- Our website is http://myweb.cableone.net/okieman7 |

Good for business, bad for us. |

However, they're limiting newsgroup access to just the Big-8 plus their internal groups. |

So you dump the -=binary=- groups, not the -=whole=- of usenet! Per -=minute=- charges are then unequally applied as some have much greater badwidth than others ... ! Not only that, but there are some REALLY "STOOPID" newsgroups out there. Most of them are regurgitation or resentments by one or more parties. It would be a really utopian, nice type of thing if UseNet could get cleaned up a bit (good pun) - it may be more enjoyable. Naaaaaaaahhhhh - who the hell am I kidding? |
