Abpo is still there. Access has been denied by a slew of ISPs. They have
lots of reasons, but the main one cited is a crusade by the NY State
Atty. General against child pornography. Noble goal, that, of course. But
what the ISPs have done is to simply deny access to all alt.binaries
groups. Baby, meet bath water.

There are independent servers that one can use. That may be what I, and
others, do. But Kye in OZ is working on a private server, and I'm kind of
waiting to see how that works out. Kye actually created abpo in the first
place, so I have high hopes.

There are multitudes of places to view orchid pictures on the web (at
least for now), but none have the camaradarie that we have shared at
abpo. So, we are hopeful that our little community can get back together
soon.

Is the alt.binaries pictures.orchids restricted by bandwidth or is it
just shut down? I posted a written question from BC, Canada and it
showed up on the server.

Thanks,
Chuck.
