   You know what, posting via carrier pidgeon would be better than Google. I   
   agree, it sucks!   
      
   If you have broadband, check out the link below. I used it when I had   
   Comcast/AT&T and it worked great.   
   http://online.comcast.net/giganews/   
      
      
   I use Teranews from work now and it rocks. It's $4 to sign up but after that   
   it's free for life.

   Good luck :-)
