A real big problem with that idea as I see it is that Mediaone who I use as an isp has a pathetic Usenet service. Before messages get even one day old, they've allready expired, and I have know posible way to look at the history of a thread unless I go to the very slow services like remarQ or Deja to look something up. So if CCC is on a usenet server, it'll be almost completely useless to me. Pete
