 I find it annoying too, the way all the web forums seem to be trying to turn 
 themselves into "social networking" sites.  Whatever was wrong with just 
 reading what people said? 
  
 Since you're here, do you happen to know what's the current status of 
 news.answers and the other *.answers groups?  I do the FAQs for 
 alt.astrology, and I'd like them to be included in *.answers.  I've 
 submitted them to news.answers and alt.answers several times, following the 
 most recent submission guidelines I can find, but I haven't had any 
 response.  An alt.astrology user told me that the last news.answers 
 moderator had died, but I don't know whether he was serious or not.  (I've 
 asked this in n.g.q before, but nobody happened to be there.) 
  
 If not, can you think of any other group that might answer this question?

 Cheers, 
 A. B.

 I don't check that account very often, so tell me on the newsgroup if you've 
 sent me an e-mail.
