From experience with a lot of AOL users, their decision will sit very

I second the above, and wish to add, "don't let the keyboard hit you in
the butt on your way out of the Usenet system........"

"couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of folks........"

"austa Lavista BABY........."

Now if we could get the WebTver's to do the same thing........

Yep, AOL screwed it with charging for ham ads, they faded away. Now they are
trying to get rid of NG - stupid. If it is not very busy so what's the problem?
If they kill NG, maybe time to change. Too much lib bias at AOL anyway.

If AOL had dropped newsgroups in May of 1997, we might have avoided the
Fraudtenna Follies.

If AOL had dropped newsgroups in May of 1997, we might have avoided the
Fraudtenna Follies altogether.
