Re: [cobalt-users] How many people here would be interested in a cobalt newsgroup on usenet?

I'd be interested... it would keep my mail from dinging every 5 
minutes and distracting me, it would allow me to view the newsgroup 
on the web whenever the @Home mail server goes down (uhh... not like 
that ever happens... cough), and the threading would probably be 
better than Poco's innate threading option - although Poco's is 
pretty darn cool.

You do realize though, that you'd end up having two lists - this one 
and the usenet one, because hardcore junkie old-timers would refuse 
to leave and newbies wouldn't have a clue that the usenet group even 
existed.
