As previously mentioned I'm adding a section to my FAQs to help the
displaced rehome. I quote the new section below. If any one has any
more suggested relable resouces, please post them.

How can I access this group?
----------------------------
Hopefully your ISP provides free news server access as a part of it's basic
service, however if your ISP has closed down their News servers all is not
lost.

You can access Usenet via Google Groups. If you choose to do this, be aware
that there is a small community of cyber-racists who actively engage in
hate activities against what they term "google gropers".

But there are also alternatives to Google and ISP provided servers. There
are free servers. Three good examples are

- Aioe http://www.aioe.org/ (Who's computer is this?)
- Albasani http://www.albasani.net/ (Who's computer is this?)
- Motzarella http://motzarella.org/ (Who's computer is this?)

There are low cost pay servers. Two good examples are
- NIN http://news.individual.net/ (Who's computer is this?)
- Newsguy www.newsguy.com

If you need a news reader to access these servers I recommend the following

- XPN http://xpn.altervista.org/index-en.html (Who's computer is this?)
- XNEWS http://xnews.newsguy.com/ (Who's computer is this?) (Windows Only)
