[ot] Google Groups..a bit flakey?
Since I switched ISPs to Clearwire (a great move) I do not get a free
usenet server (0ne detriment to an otherwise fine Clearwire service).
So, I post via Google Groups.
Ugh.
Sometimes it works, sometimes the headers appear and the article does!
Sometimes the article doesn't appear!
Is this the future of computing...randomly functioning software at the
gargantuan level?

It is the present. A standard feature of XP Pro.

Yea I'm sure the servers get loaded. Maybe you would like to try this
and see if it's stable?

The tree disapears too, but I noticed it was back when I was doing a search
this morning. I find it hard to follow a thread when you just get a list of
posts, that is the part of the forums that I use that I like the least. You
just can't beat a nice tree list of threads and posts.
