It's kinda dead in here. I know what will liven things up!

Can a couple people post my Path: header?

TIA.

Real exciting, I know. I'll come up with something better next
time. I'm serious about the header, though. Maybe next time I'll
bring my Mr. Microphone and we can go cruise 6th street on Saturday
night.

Headers? Don't they go on exhausts?

Panix rocks, dude. If you had a panix account you wouldn't always
be looking for a new news service.

I've had to look for a news service once in ... it's lifetime - when
SBC shut off their feed.

And I'd like to move a little faster then 53Kb over SlIP.

BTW: Still looking for a few Path: headers. Such an easy
request.... (Lemuel - you posted Pipsqueek's header).

Thank you. And anybody else who contributes.

I did first sign on with Astraweb when SBC/AT&T quit news, but
Astraweb specifically does not allow submitting your own Message-ID.
They refunded my money and now I went with Usenet-News. Which is
giving me other headaches (but I haven't contacted them about the
problems yet).

Nobody need mention Giganews - not that they allow custom MID's
either (they might). I can spend $5 for a lifetime of Usenet news
from another provider. No reason to pay a monthly fee. And because
Jonah is an asshole.

Anybody other than Astraweb and Usenet-News offer one-time block
accounts?
