The decline of NNTP is a fact. My ISP closed (WTF?) a few weeks ago,
leaving us all out 'in the cold' so to speak. I had been using their
NNTP servers, but they pulled the plugs on them as one of their first acts.

Now I'm stuck (at least for now) with AIOE, which sorta works. I won't
pay for NNTP so my choices are limited. Oh, well.
