Works fine for me. Retention is short but that can be solved by 
selecting the group for offline use so everything gets cached locally, 
you can't crosspost to more than 3 groups, and 40 posts/day is 1200/month.

The problem for mop man is that aioe is run by an Italian (Paolo) and 
the machines are in the Netherlands (very tall commie liberals who speak 
American without an accent so you can't tell they're foreigners).
