how is it the 'most convenient'? because it gets delivered to your
door on a handy CD? AOL costs more than most real ISP's and you're
never actually ON the internet, just locked away behind their proxies,
unless you do IRC - hee, not even THEN - all your packets are STILL
going through their proxy servers... it's basically for the lazy,
apathetic masses

I didn't forget, but since I wasn't directing the comment at you
specifically, I didn't want to lump the rest of the AOL users in with
your ugly, stupid ass.... (disrespectful is a given)

you haven't tried even close to a majority of them so that argument is
irrelevant - there are a lot more reliable services I'm sure

Most ISP's offer usenet access... you don't HAVE to go through deja...

I suppose one out of three isn't bad, but it's still a failure of a
