What a splendid suggestion!  If you like, I'll research
getting a newsserver up on cygnus.com and report back.
Several places have done this recently: Sony, SGI, and
Netscape come to mind.  My guess is that the newsserver
software is free.  If not, I'll be glad to pitch in a
couple of bucks (assuming it's reasonable).

As it is, I'm on the verge of unsubbing because of the
volume.  I think most of us would agree that the signal
to noise ratio is pretty poor.  What we wouldnt' agree
on is exactly which posts are signal and which noise;
that depends on our individual interests.
