Once upon a time...I used to be able to hook into my ISP's NNTP server
and load this newsgroup in that fashion. Now...I have to use Google
groups and while I'm in touch with you guys...there is mega fodder
around here these days.

Any suggestions? Does that Penis Enlarger really work? :)

Roper, I have been happy with Forte for $2.95 per month. Someone on here
recommended it. Thanks to whomever it is. You know who you are if you
have a memory.

That being the highest form of flattery will not grant you favor in my eyes
m@axEp@d .

You and betty need to collaborate by writing a book about: The Secret To
Lacking Originality.

I use news.datemas.de but I'm not sure if they still allow new users. It
was free but required subsription

As a backup for wjen they go rarely go down for maintenance, I also have an
account setup with nntp.aioe.org

Both allow for posting.

I've been using Agent since sometime in the 1990s. Have been using
APN in the 21st Century, no doubt due to gray's excellent testing.

Never had a reason to want to try anything else.

Because so many Mexican illegal immigrants were on usenet in 1994.
