    I have a feeling that will only fall on deaf ears. I heard its that bastard attorney general from my own city that's putting the squeeze on these ISP's.

    I just learned this myself yesterday. It depressed me for a good 10 minutes.

    I hear ya. He's my attorney general too.

    What it means is a lot more people doing what I've done for years, and that's pay for separate newsgroup access. Couldn't live without it.

    They only changed servers on my end I just made the switch and everything's back.

    Oh it's because I have Bright House... Haha, suck on that cawkmongs!

    It was kinda weird since I tried to d/l something all it did was show 526 *.gifs files with a message to visit some site for a new host.

    Bright House ain't my ISP

    I've never heard of em till today. Nor their connection to Time Warner RR.

    Though it seems as long as you have RR, you can access NGs through them.
