Given the recent Horseburger furore, perhaps the adoption of the
Sirius Cybernetics Corporation's Complaints division slogan is not a
good idea.

afda is far from dead... but it's demographics seem to differ from the
other newsgroups I lurk in.

in other groups, the people who remain seem to be ardent usenetters, and
there is a high level of cross posting and cross-group community.

Here, otoh, I think we have a lot of people (well, some, anyway) who
check in occasionally, and rarely crosspost :)

otoh, I suspect we may well be breaking records for threads by both
depth of thread nesting, and dates spanned :)

I'm always here and have been for some years, but rarely post. :)
