Just wondering where will everyone go to after Comcast NG is closed?

Ken

I have Comcast, scheduled to quit newsgroup services late this month.

I subscribe to eight newsgroups, five that reflect my interest in
woodworking, sailing and running, three that are related to vehicles
that I have to maintain in my family.

There are better sources for the car maintenance in moderated forums.

With regard to the interest newsgroups, I may just take a break, at
least till after the election. All of them are now dominated by
polarized off topic discussions, primarily political. One of them
(not this one) has become nothing more than a sock puppet show for the
purpose of trolling, particularly politically oriented outrageous
positions. Sources, rather than objective, become the most vile blogs
available, and folks in these newsgroups often pass it on as gospel.

I might get away from the computer and actually get something done :~)

Paint the house time, got to get that airless cranked up and catch
this weather window.
