   Use the Search box, top right. Same applies to Usenet. Original post is   
   marked as read then, if it's a long thread, you have to wade through them   
   all to find the original post again but, depending on the newsreader, you   
   may not have a search box. If you're using Google for Usenet,, good luck   
   with that one.
