Much as I hate to add anything to a post on this, er, intellectual level
... er, well, it's right on target.

However, the Comcast server(s) *never* lose the spam/ads/EMPs; we
Comcast customers get to see 10-20 consecutive copies of "Cheap Cable
Descrambler!!!!!" ads all the time.

Yeah, tell me how it's free so I shouldn't expect any better! In
contrast, my favorite ISP provides Supernews access as part of their
very-reasonably-priced (and cheaper than, ack! phooey!, AOL) DSL and
dial-up packages.

Then again, my favorite ISP also is capable of supporting more than MS
products, and has actual tech-support people answering the phones 24/7.
(Sorry, folks, they're only in the Pacific NW; you'll have to find your
own, if you can.)

They don't know what filtering is, to be blunt. And whatever
newsadmin(s) they have don't ever show their faces, as far as I can
tell. Comcast has a real problem with any actual people talking to any
actual customers; they want everything scripted and they really HATE it
if anyone with actual knowledge talks directly to anyone.

That's about the worst excuse for thread dropping I've ever seen,
