It will still exist after Google News shuts down. Just use a real News Server to get/post content. This group has existed for many years. Why is Google needed for this? It isn't. I recognize your name (Beaver Fever) from the past, likely before Google News existed. Hello. |

This nym has existed for 10 years or so, there are others going back to the 1990's but I can't remember them. It doesn't matter, this group is dead regardless of what is used to access it and by most it was Google Groups. Still a bittersweet moment. The internet opened a whole world for me and this group might have been my first time actually interacting with real adults and the perspectives of people outside my circle. And without this group specifically I don't think I would be the man I am today, especially without the frugal living perspectives which allowed me to survive better in the wild with limited financial resources. |

I understand. I've been on the internet and USENET since its inception. Funds are short here too. I never joined the "social media" crowd or the many web sites over the years. The lack of activity is saddening. But lookig elsewhere, I don't see anything more than shallow thinkers. It has been great knowing you over the years. I've used a few nyms myself. The email address is good. |
