I still check here about once a month.  Either the group doesn't get a
lot of posts, or my ISP's news server is not doing good retention.
Usually I see a reply from a week or two ago at most, and never see
the original post.  I should check on APN since I still pay for that,
even though I don't think that I pulled any new posts from that server
in a year or more.
