Hi Sean...

Thank You! I find ( this is just me ) USENET gated to Fidonet in many
cases ruins a good fidonet msg area. Just for the sake of traffic, I do
not think it is worth it. Maybe on some special groups, but in general,
I just don't like them to do that. But to each Moderator, his own. And
You are exactly right about 95% SPAM. I found when bringing in USENET
groups separately, that that was the case. And the fact that many ISP's
do not provide them anymore, Traffic by many quality posters is lacking
or scarce, Many have left. There are few where any fluid discussions
take place. Years gone by they were a bit different, now
the postings do not reach the quality of an active Fido area.

Have a good One!
Mike
