I only have my ISP, and for the present, they're still carrying it.
However,
I agree with the woman who made the original post. There are way
fewer people reading ngroups than before, and this group is a perfect
example.
When we lost 80% of the people who used to post here, it was sad. But
I refuse to read the new group on Yahell, much as I enjoyed the people
who moved over there.
I tend to agree with the woman who posted about it eventually going
down the tubes. I think it's going to happen. But that's just my 2 cents
and I'll continue to read this group until it dies.

Well, some of us will be here with you, so it may not die completely...
maybe just take a nap from time to time.

Dear Shelagh i do hope this Ng [and others won`t die` ] i used to read
it thrtough Agent , but my server was bought by an other who doesn`t
provide `Agent Access `, thus my son found me the Google Gate and i am
quite happy with it ,,
And i see some nice new people joined here as well , i do also read
the list people made both are joyful ,,,
