I looked at their site just now, and it seems like its a mission to pay
them! Something about some european account and a bank transfer... I
don't mind the rate, but I guess I have to go back and see how to pay
them.

OTOH, with this instantaneous access via google, this might be
something to consider! I just posted the message 5 minutes ago, and
already got replies!

I find the google option works quite well (sans spelling checker,
unfortunately).

If Google would offer a free Usenet server instead of their web-based
service that would solve your spell-check problem. Unfortunately, you
would almost certainly start seeing advertisements in each post. In a
Fortenberry post that would either be an ad for cheap, ****ty beer or
extremely expensive fly rods.

I was going to say that maybe Tim could hook you two up, but you do know
the guy is just a drawing?

Gotta remember to never wear a red shirt around this guy!!

Thats hilarious, and I'm sure we'll equally enjoy the explanation of
why you posted it in this thread....

Now THERE'S the problem with Google! You missed the text I quoted (you
didn't click on the stupid google link to "quoted text"). AND you're not
quoting anyone else's text so we can't tell WHAT in the heck you're
talking about! Just pay your 10 Euros and don't let this happen again.
