   I don't know which is worse, the time when this group was so busy   
   that nobody could read all the posts (and I for one had to resort to   
   killfiling all posts that mentioned Bush), or the current time when   
   the group is so quiet that important fannish news and issues aren't   
   even mentioned here.   
      
   I'm hoping that all the censorship, excessive ads, random changes, and   
   hostile ownership of so-called social networks will result in a return   
   to the open, unowned, and uncensored parts of the net, which of course   
   includes Usenet.   
      
   I know that at least one prolific poster is temporarily offline   
   because of attending a filk convention in Germany.
