Yes, my EL groups continues to work... at least most of the time. I had a
little difficulty earlier this AM but it was working again in a few minutes.

I've been with EL for only a few years but am becoming quickly disenchanted.
I use dialup and too often get a slower than 53K connection. That, combined
with the groups fiasco has me considering a change. Any recommendations?

The only other ISP I've used was AOL which became a total disaster, IMO,
back when I switched. BTW, they continue to owe me a couple of bucks in
refund $. Not enough for me to make a major issue of it but it certainly
reflects the corporate ethics at AOL.

Personally, I'd think hard about Time Warner Road Runner. I think both
of you are close enough to Pasadena to make it work. Don't expect any
ISP to give decent USENET service. Check out usenet-access.com or some
other news service for reliable service..

Gene,
Comcast gave up handling UseNet and contracted their UseNet access out
to giganews. Their service is FANTASTIC and you get 2 GB of downloads
per month for free. If you need more you can pay for the service from
giganews.

As you can tell, I am very very pleased with Comcast as a ISP and Cable
provider.
