A possibility, but the gui differs so greatly from what we're accustomed to, so we'd probably lose some valued members in the transition.


Not to mention that one of the things which helps preserve the quality of this forum, I believe, is that people actually have to pay to belong. Usenet would make us subject to horrible spam.

<< Usenet NewsGroups ... A possibility, but the gui differs so greatly >>

<< we have a secondary site, which conveniently resembles SI >>
