Folks,
I continue to view with interest Google's improvement of
the newsgroup archives formerly undertaken by Dejanews.
I think eventually this will be the newsgroup reader of
choice.
But in reviewing this past week's posts, I see an
alarming number of off-topic and completely irrelevant
posts by someone who should know better. It's embarrassing.
And they are right there in the thread, for all to see. :-(
The last thing I'm sure we all want is for this newsgroup
to become so popular that keeping up with it is a full-time
job. To this end, I'm vowing to act in a more responsible
and sober manner befitting a computer professional from
now on.
Cheers,
David
