Jim and I generally read this group via Google. Over the last few
days, the archives are often not available and the count of messages
for the month has bee varying wildly. Today, it has receeded by
several hundred from the 500+ that it ws before the wierdness started.

I thought it might be worth commenting so people know and don't think
others are rude when they don't respond.

======================
Google is awful. Why don't you use one of the free NSPs out there? There
is one I'm using now where you don't even have to register. Just put
nntp.aioe.org in for the server name and download the list of NGs. Nothing
is simpler or easier. :-)
