   Um, no, I have indeed been an OS/2 user in the past, but I've never   
   posted in the OS/2 groups.  I was already exclusively running GNU/Linux   
   by the time I ever got an internet connection at home. ;)   
      
   I also rarely post to Usenet anymore, mostly by lack of time.  I am a   
   moderator at the Manjaro forum and an administrator at yet another (but   
   not computer-related) forum.  I do however still monitor Usenet, albeit   
   mostly in lurking mode. :)
