Somebody created alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.dr_demento a while back, but it didn't
propogate very well. I have asked GIGANEWS to add it since they are THE BEST
newsserver.... 8-)

If they add it, I will start my daily show postings again.

Seeya!

It often takes more than one person's request to get a newsgroup added
to a server.

The Dr. D. newsgroup also doesn't make it to genuity.net (nor its
clones: news.verizon.net, etc.), teranews.com (nor its clones:
bubbanews, etc.), biggulp.readfreenews.net.

Can someone list the servers that it *does* appear on?

Those of us who no longer get Dr. D over the air rely on Z06 and
others to get our dementia fix, and appreciate the time and effort
that goes into preparing the postings.

I heard it was on Easynews....

Giganews is looking into it.

The problem was that it wasn't created through the right channels.

Does it make it to DejaGoo? (http://groups.google.com) What about the
free subscription server, news.cis.dfn.de ?

This would be rec.music.demento. Neither one carries any binaries
AFAIK.

If you want a fancy news server you might want to find out if you can
get on an ISP which outsources usenet to that company. For example,
news.bway.net is the same as east.isp.giganews.com [216.166.71.236]
and there are numerous other ISP's which outsource to giganews,
supernews, et alia.

I can't do that, but I can tell you that it does NOT appear to have
been picked up by Athena News.

I think it only exists on "easynews" because their system allows users to create
newsgroups, but they don't get propogated around the net.... more of a local
group probably....

If anyone figures out how to make the newsgroup
alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.dr_demento the proper way that it gets propogated around
to the servers, I have no problem posting a show everyday....

I requested the admins of usenet-access.com to add it, and they did, but
there was almost no content...it wasn't until I signed up with easynews that
I saw any posts there.

Yes, I've asked TeraNews to add it (www.teranews.com) but they haven't yet.
I got a message from them today saying they will recompile the list this
weekend, whatever that means. Cheers, John
