   NNTP is a cool thing. For instance, Facebook or any other social network   
   can be switched off in one second for all their users. But NNTP network   
   has a lot of servers, and you can read/write from any of them. If one   
   server is down for some reason, you always have a possibility to check   
   your echoes using another server. If an NNTP server doesn't have a   
   particular echoes you can ask its administrator and he will include it   
   in the list.   
      
   Bye, Ardith!
