For those on Google, learn how to post properly, i.e. include some of
the
text you are replying to. If you don't, it looks like you're talking
to
yourself. Google is NOT a proper newsreader. Those who do not use
Google
here in Usenet land (99.99999%) usually set up their newsreaders so
that
previously read messages do not show up again.

So, please; do it right according to Usenet protocol. I would hate to
have
to start kill-filing the Google domain.


Ok I am sure I have been messing things up because I am very new to
this stuff. So if anyone has a page that has directions on how to post
I would love to get more informed on this. And thanks for pointing that
out. I do use google. what is the best newreader?
