Is _that_ true? hmmmm... I've been reading (and posting to) a number
of Gmane ng's by using my newsreader: slrn. A couple (like the Mandrake/
Madrivia ng's) send a "reply-to-this-email" to confirm you before a post
is made. That I can live with. Others offer 'open' posting. I've only
recently added this ng to my list -- and, until now, I've only been lurking
here. With this, I'll see if I can post, as well.

HGN,
Jonesy
