Drop all posts from googleposters http://improve-usenet.org


Interesting site. My ISP (Sympatico) dropped direct free Usenet
support and dumped me onto some other Usenet provider that requires a
paid subscription for posting (reading is free). So that drove me and
a bunch of other Sympatico users to Google Groups in order to post. If
I posted more often, I would probably do most of my reading using GG
but normally continue with the Outlook Express newsreader and the free
Usenet server. The position of improve-usenet seems to be akin to
banning all Corvettes from the road because there are some bad
drivers.
