What are you on about Dick?I can imagine Richard not appreciating your becoming this familiar.
I don't use Usenet ...You do, you just don't know it. Which is the tragedy.
I simply log on to Google groups.That much is obvious. Ignorance, and particularly ignorance about the used
communications medium, is more common among googlodytes than anywhere else.
ISTM these days Google Groups has pretty much replaced AOL regarding the
percentage of lusers posting through it.
How am I being lazy? In what sense am I being lazy?Implicitly you blame others for not doing what you don't (want to) do --
doing something against spam. Instead you *feed* spammers and trolls, and
spam by yourself.[1] However, since Usenet simply does not work the way you
want it to, discussing that is pointless.

I don't get these things through email whatsoever.E-mail? You should get yourself informed unless you want to make a complete
fool of yourself here.
I log in and view them.You don't say.
