I guess everyone is using the BBRC forum instead of posting here this
season?
Just wondering as I always enjoyed Usenet because I don't have to log in
(although the OT posts and spam are annoying).

....FWIW You DO have to log on to Usenet although you may have made the
operation transparent on your installation. You can set most web based
forums to remember your username/password if you want your browser to do
that for you.
Simply getting to a usenet server has become a chore since many ISP's no
longer provide them as a service and there just isn't a nice Google/Web
based interface any longer. The university I work for has not supported
a usenet server for more than 10 years now. My kids have no clue what
Usenet is or how to get there. Frankly my kids have no idea what a
message board is or how to get there or why you might want to.
If you don't care for the Bob's groups banter/cliquishness and would
like a broader field to play in then www.redszone.com has new membership
policies which boil down to ....you stay around and are active for a
couple of months and we'll make you a member.
There are good people in both groups. Both groups are leaps and bounds
over most public forums.

Sad to see another fine group fall apart on Usenet but then, change
