As of today, Time-Warner Cable no longer carries r.m.f. Too few subscribers, they say. No warning, just plop. They kindly advise I can buy it from several "premium" (ie, for fee) providers.

Phutt! True, it's essentially moribund now but I and many others still monitor it and occasionally post. I been there some 20 years now.

Many's the time (though not recently) near-fried, cold-turkey Mudcatters have messaged there WHAT'S HAPPENING? when Mudcat was down 10 minutes or more.

Well, I guess I can access through Google Groups but it was a Good Thing to get threaded the newsgroup direct to my own computer and mailor.

Phutt on Time-Warner!
