Big Bertha Thing language

The purest form of the english language is contained
in the dead sea scrolls. There is not a lot of it, even there.

Pure english language is a bit like house dust, all dead skin.

The living bits of the english language are anything but pure,
borrowing from a dozen drunken, pilaging, barbarian invaders,
with not one good intention between them.

No, no, no, no.

Usenet simply doesn't work that way.

The MS NNTP server will close, and the web interface to that server
will be gone.

But the newsgroups can and will continue to be propagated on all the
other NNTP servers that carry them.

Now, it's possible for MS to issue a rmgroup command, but those are
so easily forged that most NNTP servers have been ignoring them for
eons, so it's unlikely that any effort MS makes to cleanse Usenet of
its public newsgroups will work.

I recently read that the "powers that be" are considering creating a
bunch of new MS newsgroups in the comp.* hieararchy to replace the
ms.public newsgroups, so keep your eyes open for that.
