*** It is fine.

ES is better than Google groups because Google somehow does not send
plain text to Usenet text newsgroups. )-:

I was not really in hibernation, just changed to a new email address on my
own website (which is still empty, and is really not for public use anyway).
This allows me to switch ISP-s at will without loosing contact with the
world. BTW, I kind of accepted that some of the time (luckily,not too often)
when my news client tries to download posts in the NG from eternal september
I cannot get access and need to "escape".

Sorry, I indeed did not read carefully... However, he had an interesting
point about no plaintext posts in Google groups.

*** Sorry for the long delays, but I have become very busy with my
stage lighting work and don't get to the newsgroups as often now.

*** I don't know why Google does not adhere to UseNet guidelines given
that they took the time to set themselves up for newsgroups.
