Hey, I have not been able to post for a week (I know, no great loss). But, I
have not been able to read posts either. Here at work we don't have a
news-server, so I am accessing one that is public, but it is down all the
time.

Does anyone know of a good public news server I can use?

I have a lot of catching up to do, but some posts are already off of this
server.... :-(
