Big Bertha Thing Deaf

One day God woke up, deaf-as-a-post. He could not hear anyone
speaking. Nothing, dinada, zilch, not even one line e-mail.
Fortunately it only lasted 6 days and He managed to keep himself
busy.

A PPT takes 6 hours people time, 18 hours computer time. It just
seems longer.

No, no, no, no.

Usenet simply doesn't work that way.

The MS NNTP server will close, and the web interface to that server
will be gone.

But the newsgroups can and will continue to be propagated on all the
other NNTP servers that carry them.

Now, it's possible for MS to issue a rmgroup command, but those are
so easily forged that most NNTP servers have been ignoring them for
eons, so it's unlikely that any effort MS makes to cleanse Usenet of
its public newsgroups will work.

I recently read that the "powers that be" are considering creating a
bunch of new MS newsgroups in the comp.* hieararchy to replace the
ms.public newsgroups, so keep your eyes open for that.
