Fare Thee Well all.

Screw Duke. Usenet is alive and well, as anyone reading this thread
will attest. There are many and varied nntp servers out there more
than willing to take your money for access, most so cheap they border
on free-of-charge. There's several of those, too. Also, screw the
RIAA and the MPAA, a buncha self-serving lying dirtbags who'd screw
their own children for a nickel.

Well, I'm awake!

I have 2 ISPs and they both still offer Usenet, including "binaries",
for no extra charge.
