HELP!
Ever since the @Home servers were taken offline at the end of February
(and even maybe before that(!)) and I have to use the Rogers newsservers,
I have made posts that just don't show up, or are never replied to in a
few newgroups. I am not sure if it is because I am asking questions that
no one knows the answers to, or they just don't get propogated around the
usenet universe.
Can you all help me out here and post a reply to this saying you even saw
it? Or if you only see this message because someone else replied, quoting
the original?
Much thanks if you help out a lost usenet soul.

@home (Cox out here) suck royally.

"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the
citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a
double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the
mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the
blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no
need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry,
infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their
rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I
have done. And I am Caesar." -- Julius Caesar

Yup, I saw it. Don't know if it is somehow related, but I've been missing messages in this
NG too. I'm with Sprint Canada, not Rogers. Often I'll see replies to messages but miss
the original one. Sometimes ones in the middle of a thread show up a few days later. It
has gotten worse in the past two or three months. Maybe Canada is becoming a newsgroup
backwater? <grin>

Most ISP's suck when it comes to news.They don't want to spend the
resources so they chintz us on news feeds. You need *lots* of HD space to
have all the newsgroups and keep the posts for a decent amount of time. The
solution is to spend $6.00 US and get a real news feed with
wwww.newsfeeds.com. My ISP says they get all the news groups and when I
retrieve the groups there are just over 40,000 groups. They are BS'ing me,
there are really over 100,0000 groups available. Another alternative is to
get a free news server.Just do a web search on "free news servers". And one
last alternative is to get a news account with www.google.com. But I don't
like it because it is web based so it is slow to read and post from.
