Or is ntl brokted?

Hmmm strange...

I don't normally keep too much of an eye on exactly *when* the Posts
come in, cos I know that NNTP Newsgroups aren't *supposed* to be
"Instant" & the idea is that people can dip in & out whenever they
want, to see what's been Posted over a period of time (hours or
days even - rather than just in the last few minutes) & I usually have
my Message List View Set to show the Threads (with the Messages in
Date/Time order within those Threads)...

So, when I saw your Post (timed at 21:53, which I happened to Download
at about 22:40, cos I have been mucking around doing other things & this
is the first time I've looked in here since this Morning), I switched
my Message List View out of "Threaded" View, so as to show all the
Individual Messages Sorted by Time & I also noticed that there are
absolutely *no* Messages in this Newsgroup since...

I'm using the Telewest/Blueyonder (Text only) News Server, so it's
not just NTL that is showing no Posts in here since 19:27 (& other
Groups on the TW/BY News server have Posts since then in them)

I haven't looked on Google Groups (or on any other News Servers),
to see what, if any other Posts have been made in here.
