   I'm sure these individual are trying to help and the help is free to   
   anyone interested. I get the feeling that some may still be living   
   in a past era when universities provided access to usenet. The good   
   old days. Yes, when usenet was at DEFCON 1. I'm thinking maybe we   
   could relax that level of readiness just a tad.
