   I was thinking a newslink kind of setup, no rex involved. They have a big no   
   sharing policy... No web-based access of any kind. I may try it anyway. What's   
   the worse they can do? Ban me? lol   
      
   WTF? When did usenet become a tightly controlled commodity? I remember when it   
   was free for all... But then, most usenet was run by colleges and universities   
   back then... I may just start my own usenet/nntp style network and say screw   
   the big guys.

   I may go ahead and try it. $3.95 one time fee for a small feed (mostly alt.bbs   
   and a few others) it won't be bad.
