 There's even a news server at fsu.edu, which evidently peers with 
 gatech.edu. 
  
 Neither of these facts surprises me as much as the discovery that 
 D.Stussy and I are not this group's only readers. 
  
 In case anybody else is reading, here's the charter. 
  
 "The unmoderated group news.groups.questions is an appropriate place 
 to ask (and answer) questions about newsgroups, such as which topics 
 are discussed where, and how to start, find or create groups or 
 mailing lists for specific interests." 
  
  
  
 Maybe we can revitalise NGQ if we crosspost relevant questions when we 
 answer them elsewhere? 
  
 (According to Google, there were 2490 posts here in March 1995. In the 
 past five years, 32 has been the maximum in one month - and of course 
 Google archives plenty of spam.)
