I have been in contact with AOL about the dropping of the newsgroups
and their official response is basically "not enough participation" but
my guess is that they are cheapening out. Everyone who reads this list
on AOL needs to write them about keeping it. I told them that this was
the last straw and I may go to a DSL which is actually cheaper. And
they complain about losing members.... makes you wonder which non
customer oriented MBA thought this one up. By the way, you can get the
newsgroups free by going to http://groups.google.com and signing
up.---Mike
