Have you been reading them since the 1970's? They were around even back
then when it was known as arpanet. And back then we didn't have trolls.
Yes, I have been and when I started reading them there was no arpanet.
And back then argumentative crumongeons like you would have had their
UUNET node blacklisted as wasting bandwidth.
ROFLMAO! Before Arpanet, there was NOTHING. Usenet didn't exist! It
functioned over Arpanet.
Caught you in another lie.
Sorry, wrong answer Mr Expert At Everything.
USENET news was originally distributed via UUCP and dial up modems.
The first USENET connection to the ARPANET was through UC Berkley in 1980.
It wasn't until the late 80's that USENET started to migrate away from
UUCP and modems to NNTP and network links.
