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. -- Rev.
