   Based on an answer to the same question in rec.arts.tv:   
      
   "nntp.aioe.org  is totally free and you don't even need an   
   account.  No login or password is required. "   
      
   Today I put nntp.aioe.org into my newsreader (Agent) and   
   voila! driveyness.  I think it's text only, but it looks   
   like I'm getting everything I had using comcast's server and   
   on refresh, there's another 3,000+ newsgroups that I haven't   
   looked at yet.  And now I'll test that I can post....
