chesler @smiths-group.com	reply to Goober Re: The Comcast Newsgroups Service Discontinued said by Goober: I think that a lot of this disagreement is age-based. For me, I started when Internet access meant dial up with nothing else. When I started there weren't any Interwebs. We had dialup to a public access Unix, and data traveled by UUCP. I still like Usenet. If I didn't have a long-term agreement with Comcast I'd be bummed and look elsewhere to see if RCN or Verizon have better offers. (They might not, thems the breaks.) But I do have a 24-month agreement, so I'm not happy that midstream they took away two things that were part of why I accepted the agreement. (- That IP belongs to my employer; I'm just borrowing it, not representing them.)
