    Thank God! I hope this FINALLY pushes the few legitimate Google users to
    move to a proper Usenet service.

    You think Usenet is going to improve now?

    Probably not by leaps and bounds since so many backbone sites were already dropping posts from Google. But I think it'll make a definite improvement.
    And it will force the few legitimate posters on Google to get a proper
    newsfeed which is going to make a big difference in their experience too. --scott
