Well, my ISP won't be carrying newsgroups so wondering where if anywhere
you people are going instead of here....

google "free news servers".  I like eternal-september.org, which I started
using when Charter's in-house server turned flakey.  Husband likes
news.albasani.net.  Both require a free signup.  No problem.

news.individual.net costs peanuts and filters the worst of the spam too.

  Just go to usenet-news.net

  You can get a 100 Gigabyte block for $22.  If you are mostly just posting
and reading text like this group, this will probably last you 10 years or
more.  Two dollars and 22 cents a year isn't bad at all.  I just use Outlook
Express for reading and posting, but I'm sure there are plenty of other
programs out there.
