Re: How to reconstitute Computist posts sidebar?

["brad" <mrbrad(remove)@ll.net>]

my inet provider times out..when i try to get posts like this...at a certain
length..i think that is some of what some people are having problems with
..it just hangs...i guess it depends on how many hoops the local ISP is
jumping thru to get usenet posts...not a high priority with my isp..and a
dial up connection

not bitching..but i guess i just need something more then 56k modem to get
this stuff before my isp's low end service locks up

thanks anyway...if it is avail i'm sure i'll eventually get it from somebody
who eventually will re-constitute the stuff..just having low end trailing
end of the technology issues at my end...ie ...56k modem and such..prob
should not gripe at least with my isp i can get usenet feeds via outlook
express setup...some isp's point you to web based services only these days
only to get usenet posts...

anyway thanks for the services in this
