Understood. :-(

I'll take this up with you offline (via, bleh :->, E-mail).

May I recommend "nn"? Or even "lynx" does a pretty decent job with
newsgroups.

Well, you now have (authenticated) NNTP access, so I'm assuming you
can cook up something reasonable to pull the needed data to your site....

Let's see if news/NNTP will be a better way to keep in touch. Ok, thanks
for the comments on the Wiki experiment, I'll keep trying until I can find
something:
1. I can live with, and
2. The VSTa user community can live with, too
I think in the next month or so I can scratch up something which can
pull the news archives, expunge E-mail addresses, and then paste
the results into a Web page under the WWW server. Personally I find
a newsgroup format to be surprisingly pleasant (it's amazing how the
"nn" commands just come back to my fingertips even though I haven't used
it in many years) and I can bookmark it along with all the other usual
URL's I read daily.
