Hi Steve,

Newsgroup material moves across the internet in a bucket brigade style
of relay using NNTP as the control language. It passes from the
source back towards you (such that you can see you own posting) with
delay that is variable.

For me, that delay is on the order of 1 second to three or four
minutes. On bad days it can take as many hours. On Google, the delay
is more pronounced.
