Another listing of newsgroups in the "alt" Usenet hierarchy
The Society for Reviling ATnT
Last-modified: 5 Feb 1993 by ne...@becker.gts.org
Here's another listing of newsgroups in the "alt" news hierarchy,
as it appears from one site. Note that this listing may well be
quite different if prepared on your system. No attempt to make any
recommendations is implied by this list; it is for informational
purposes only.
There are 748 groups shown, as well as 244 aliases (indicated
by "=" beginning the text field). The count of articles received
here so far is in the second field, if the line describes an actual
"active" file entry.
Where the text field is merely ".", no description is known
(creative suggestions are welcomed).
If there are actual "alt" newsgroups on your system but not in
this list, email to that effect would be appreciated - please
send to "ne...@becker.gts.org".
Thanks to all who have sent updates, suggestions and comments -
your help is appreciated.
WARNING: not to be taken internally, contents may have settled
during shipment, etc. etc.
