Default Really bad news

You're right... didn't know that. Well, then it's a pretty awful troll or an
awful event.

It isn't. Posted from google not aol. Looks like from RR in Virginia.


Um, AOL stopped providing a usenet server for it's customers quite a while
ago.
When that happened, Bobsprit started posting from Google. This could still
be a
forgery, of course, but it wouldn't be that simple to prove.

It's pretty silly on his part, because he could switch to newsguy for $80
a year
and get everything he has now, plus better usenet. He's paying something
like
$25 a month for a ****ty ISP and no news servers. He knows my email
address and
I would be glad to help him transition. He could even keep his old AOL
email
address for awhile for $5 a month until he feels comfortable with letting
go.
