   Though "eternal-september" seems an odd name, it makes me think of spring   
   flowers, but I don't see what the *name* of a server says about how well it   
   works. But if one is going to go by the name, the Joao Albasini was a rather   
   unsavoury, if not criminal character in history.   
      
   I started using Mozarella when someone recommended it and my ISPs news server   
   was getting unreliable. It's worked pretty well, and so when it changed to   
   eternal-september a couple of weeks ago, I switched to that, and it still   
   works well, with far less down time than my ISP's server.
