To often people think Google runs this newsgroup or even worse they think Google owns it. You avoid the irritating spam this way.

I have no problem getting to the newsgroup, but it seems to be paralized. I don't think it's about what program I use -- I simply get there by a link. The problem is that the usenet group has not been functioning for a couple of days now. MsBraimy schreef: >> Ms.Brainy schreef: >>> It's seems impossible to post here.

Again try Outlook or Thunderbird etc and install a newsserver (ask your provider) to avoid difficulties as you have right now. Again Google is just using usenet which is owned by nobody!! Jan (normally Dutch spoken) Dear Jan, I am speaking Hebrew (seriously) and you are speaking Dutch... Apparently you are reading and responding on MedKB, whereas I wrote my original post to a google usenet group. I don't know how, but those two duplicate all (or part) of the posts. The google group is still disabled, and I have discovered the MedKB only today. Never mind... >MsBraimy schreef: >>> Ms.Brainy schreef: [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > >Jan (normally Dutch spoken) > I am speaking Hebrew (seriously) and you are speaking Dutch...

Jan and myself are inserting our posts directly to Usenet, not using a gateway. Or a web interface to Usenet like Google. We use software programs called news readers that directly read posts from the news servers and insert posts to Usenet, to the news servers.  SignatureCharles Test > Test Looked pretty good ... from here. Thunderbird DOES work well. So does Agent (by Forte). Dear Ms. Brainy, You are correct. I think they were "working" on their system, and a number of posts were delayed. It looks like it is now fixed. Otis > It's seems impossible to post here. Does anybody know how to notify > google?

In fact, other google groups (if not all)were also disabled for a couple of days. I did not subscribed to MedKB, bluebird or any other similar group, but to my surprise my posts ended up there. It seems that things are back in order now, after substantial delays. I have no stocks in google, yahoo or any other bird, I have no loyalty to any of them and I don't care one way or the other. I am "here" only for issues of eye and vision. Case closed. Ms.Brainy schreef: > When I reported it was impossible to post here, the "here" is the > google usenet group sci.med.vision. Snip... Put on your glasses Ms.Brainy. The "here" is the newsgroup sci.med.vision of Usenet. Google is only the instrument YOU use to look in to it. I use the newsreader Thunderbird and doing so I do not have the problems you have. > It seems that things are back in order now, after substantial delays. > I have no stocks in google, yahoo or any other bird, I have no loyalty > to any of them and I don't care one way or the other.

Jan (normally Dutch spoken) >Ms.Brainy schreef: >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >I use the newsreader Thunderbird and doing so I do not have the problems >you have. Well, to be precise, you use Thunderbird which downloads the posts from a news server. So it's not quite as simple as just getting a newsreader. For example, I use the newsreder Agent and get the posts from news.individual.net People who don't understand how the internet works. always assume that google owns the groups. And often they won't be told any different.

I need not even a newsreader. I can use telnet. Yes and also then I have to use a newsserver, in this you are quite right. But by using a newsreader like Thunderbird or Outlook or Agent etc... life is much more comfortable here. What we both try to explain is the fact Google does not own this particularly newsgroup or Usenet.

I don't think so. We make thousands of judgments every day based on insufficient information, and this is one of them. Intellectual snobbery, perhaps... People who don't understand the basic principles of something they've apparently done for quite a while are either incurably ignorant or hopelessly stupid. I repeat: It may be noted that the opinions of such people are rarely worth reading.
