   I don't know or care if Usenet was one particular provider   
   of newsgroups, but what I know is that all these messages   
   are going to places other than google, and google doesn't   
   own them or is the sole provider.   
      
   I already have an account at eternal-september with the   
   intention of obtaining this newsgroup, but I haven't decided   
   yet whether I want to avail their UUCP service. I want to get   
   it via PDOS/386 or PDOS/3X0 but neither is ready for that   
   yet. I believe I did connect PDOS/386 to eternal-september   
   to see if I could receive a data stream from them and I   
   believe I was successful.
