Mike, bringing up a Google group star rating for Usenet posts is a
totally dumb thing to do.

Oh, great Telamon, I just asked Steve what was up with those google
stars. ;-)

You and others use google to post on Usenet but google is just a portal
to it. Google also has it own "Google groups", which belong to google as
do the "star ratings" of its users. The interface apparently does not
distinguish between Usenet and "Google groups" hence the confusion of
its users. Bad google.

Be aware that many people on Usenet block posts from google.

I'd spend the money for what some call a "real" newsgroup reader, but
I like it now, I don't know why some people don't like. It has all the
groups that I frequent. What do you use Telamon...and Steve
also...what newsreader do you use?

I'm using whatever is on Netscape, not sure if it has a name?
I can also use whatever is included in Internet Explorer, but don't care much
for that.
