A good many of us are recovering from Google Groups shock, the new
interface makes it so hard to read and post. Perhaps they are all over
at the google groups group complaining.

Eric,

I'm curious of why you post through Google, is it because your ISP doesn't
carry NG's?

Maybe I'm simple minded, but using a newsreader is so much easier to follow
threads, or for posting.
