well

every body away on holiday??

 

underneath my scribble :

This group is gradually dying like many others as most of the newer computer
users and the young dont even know usenet exists and it never gets any
publicity. C+

 

It has been kind of quiet lately hasn't it. Me, I'm busy with grand
parenting duties in the school holidays.

 

I noticed that too. Many nntp groups seem to be dying...
I suppose everyone is moving to the new nonsense trends on internet.

A group thrives when there are problems about which people can share
ideas/solutions. I have owned a 504, 505, 406 and now have a 407.
There is no question that, from the 406, problems have been much less
frequent. The fuel/engine/electrics management systems are very
reliable.
But the same factor has sharply reduced the scope for us to fiddle. I
understood every link in the fuel/drive chain up to the 505. I could
solve/fix most break-downs. Just as well the 407 is virtually trouble-
free because, if the thing stops, I have very little idea of what to
do about it (except call for help!).
I am in groups on health-related topics and these show no signs of
losing members - well there is considerable turnover but no change in
the level of interest/activity.
