Woo hoo! Now if we can just get Google froups shut down then ~maybe~
the "eternal September" will finally come to an end and Usenet can go
back to being exclusively for techies and people who have IQs higher
than a sack of shit! ^__^

It should also take a lot of strain off the binary froups, cutting out
all the sloppy ass n00bs. Plus it makes sharing binaries a *LOT*
easier since the MPAA and the RIAA aren't going to give a shit about
something that the general masses don't have easy access to.

Spread the word...Usenet is DEAD!

...well, dead to the retarded masses anyway. And good fucking
riddance, Usenet of the early 90s was *SO* much nicer than the
constant flood of idiocy that started plaguing Usenet after the AOL
invasion of '95.
