Hi Bob

I hear what you say, but not all of us are as lucky to have access to
these
readers. I have to make use of nntp.saix.net, and that is even a bigger
dross, as you call it!
I have always really enjoyed going direct to their website. Lately, I
have
stopped doing that, except if I am really bored. I have tried this
saix.net
thing, and I hate it. Unfortunately, I stay in South Africa, and nowadays
that really is dross.

If you access the groups via a newsgroup reader, you avoid that dross.

Get rid of your stupid questionnaire, which pops up every time one
responds
to a message. It serves no purpose, except to show that you do not
know
how
to handle such polls. Having answered to your stupid questionnaire a
thousand times, one would think that by now you know what my answwers
to
your
stupid questions are. For crying out loud, wake up and smell the real
world
out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And while you are at it, fix the problem which prevents people from
registering for notifications on threads. Dammit, how stupid can
clever
people get!!!!!!!!!
