Thank you Jeff, for your time in posting this, I was reading my emails, came
across your post, and decided to finish reading and go back to it, then follow
the instructions.
Then I read Todds post (thanks Todd) clicked on the link and ta da!!! It
downloaded lugnet.general as a newsgroup (at least that is what I think it has
done) I now can click on the various groups I have suscribed to listed under
my inbox, and it gives me all posts pertaining to that group. i can post from
there as well. So I guess now I know what a newsreader is?
I was using outlook express (internet explorer) but I have communicator as
well, your instrructions concentrated on communicator, is there a reason for
that I don't know about?
I have heard some people swear that communicator is better than explorer, is
this also your personal preference? (and why?)
By the way, this is as good a time as any to ask, I guess, I have always
wondered where your quote "Float on a river, forever and ever, Emily" comes
from?
Many thanks for your help, Jeff, I do feel like the classroom dunce around
here sometimes! I have only had a computer for about 6 months! But boy! what a
computer!!!!!!

Thus the long blathering (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jan-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
