That's good advice, but the retention on binary groups may not allow
one to go back very far at all. So, just to start this all up anew,
here would be my recommendation:


Why? He's asking a question about providers, which really has nothing
to do with binary retention. To start this anew only makes yet
another thread on the same thing that is actively being discussed.

Huh? Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I thought the question was because
Comcast is going to stop offering newsgroups, how the OP could stay "in
the
loop". Since this was posted in a binary group with likely low retention,
I just made a short recommendation. OP can take it from there.


Argh! I see. I did not notice the post to the binaries group as well as
the regular group. My bad. I thought he was asking about the regular
group. All the same - there have been quite a few discussions on this very
thing over the past couple of months, in a regular manner. All the OP had
to do was read the newsgroup and he'd have found his answer, rather than
starting a new thread.
