Let's give this a try...

Hi gang,

I thought I'd give Google Groups a try because it has many of the same
features as Yahoo! but they seem to try harder to eliminate spam and
Yahoo's annoying ads that block the whole screen every couple of
messages was making me crazy. We can see how this works and if we like
our new digs, stay put - if not, we can move on.

Tell everyone you know we are now located here, and if/when you sign up
don't forget to use spamgourmet if you're uberparanoid of spammers.

Here's to a new beginning.
