Now I see this in the new....

I think I will be shopping around for a new ISP...any suggestions?

Hey, T-M-F, you do KNOW that Embarq's, (which used to be Sprint)
contract withEarthlinkexpired before these layoffs? They took their
DSL customers either to another provider, or to their own backbone which
took a LOT of work away fromEarthlink'semployees. Would YOU continue
to pay hundreds of employees with nothing to do, and no work to do in
the foreseeable future?

When you are a devotee of Lenin as Too Few Brains is...yes, you MUST
keep those brave workers.

That's why he's called T-M-F.

I still don't "get" what's going on, and can't find the right help at
either Earthlink.net or Supernews. Any advice will be appreciated!

All I know is, (1) I no longer have Earthlink's own news service, and
(2) I read that it's been "outsourced" to Supernews,

But.....OK, so how do I access my usenet service through Supernews?
Is it now an extra, for-pay service through Earthlink? (Actually, my
Earthlink service nowadays is through Time Warner Cable). Or, is the
so-called outsourcing just a way of saying Earthlink has invited us to
open separate, for-payaccounts with Supernews?

Thanks!
