Subj : Newsgroups? To : Sean Dennis From : Al Robres Date : Tue Jul 24 2001 03:45 pm -=> Quoting Sean Dennis to Al Robres <=- SD> Don't even need that.

While it's easy to just join a network like Worldnet or Familynet that offer some newgroups. I some what hate to be dependant on others as to what's available or going thru a hassle to get connected only to later drop the network. Sure it's hard to say any newsgroup is not going to have some spam. The content can be very comparable to a good echo. There again finding a good newgroup can also be hard to find, creating the bad rap or stigma associated with newsgroups. There again, it never hurts to have as many options available ;=) Al ~~~ ReneWave v2.00+ --- Renegade v05-11 Exp * Origin: Bad Dog BBS (1:218/903) .
