There is something very odd about the group. I subscribed to see what was
going on, and NIN tells me there are 587 posts, but refuses to download
them, while NTL was prepared to apparently do so I ended with nothing, and
the fascinating total of -800 or so unread. It's now showing zero, but I've
never seen a negative before!
Anyone know what is(not) going on there?
It worked for me but the content was not worth the visit. There seem to
be a few serious posts but lots of junk.
