Since AOL is dumping my favorite news groups
logic dictates they get dumped instead.
This cable ISP is great, its like going from a
wagon equiped with square wheels (AOL)
to warp drive ( Cox Cable ), and the price is
only $5.00 higher than AOL.

Best Regards

Now all you need to do is format your harddrive to get rid of the AOL
virus.

Welcome. Getting rid of AOL is like a person putting away their Prozac.
You don't need all those Advice for the Loveworn columns and Date Recent
Parolees Columns. Any ISP will get you to the Internet, and from there, you
can go to newsgroups you want to go to.

How arrogant for a company to tell people what they can and can't read.

The cable modem is the greatest thing since peanut butter. Get online in
about five seconds. Downloads that used to take hours now take minutes. Up
to 175x as fast. If anyone else out there is still on aol, give it up! Get
with the 21st century.

As mentioned, you might have to have a computer pro redo your computer, as
once AOL stuff gets in there, it leaves popups that are tenacious as kudzoo.
Maybe you know how to do that yourself.

Feel free to test here. Ignore idiots that tell you what to do. Like AOL.

Yes, it is - if he were only doing a pure posting test. But I have
a feeling (from the included text) this message was much more about
notifying everyone about an E-mail address change...

(If you're going to "net-cop" someone, you need a stronger case.)

That wasn't my net-cop routine.

I diddn't once get out my cable-ties, or my trusty old nightstick with the
mysterious stains.

Great. Use alt.test, or post a real message then, rather than noising up
the group with test posts.

aol

Yea, because AOL is monitoring rec.crafts.metalworking to see how
their customers feel about their policy decisions (rolls eyes...)

Netnannying is a tough job, but someone's got to do it. Thank goodness Dave
Hinz volunteered for the job.

(Well, actually, he got it because no one else wanted it, but we are not
telling him.)

HTH ;-)

Yeah, er, whatever. Guy doesn't include context with his posts,
I pointed out that context helps. Guy whines about AOL here, and
seems to think (a) they watch here, and (b) care about him.
