RFC isn't a google group and was around long before google was even
dreamed up. Google only logs it and allows you to post to it. Get a
real reader and server and you'll see the difference. If I had to use
google I'd be gone in a flash.

To each his own, Lou. I don't mind the format.

Many people automatically kill/delete all posts from Google Groups because
they are an unending source of spam. Please read and understand the
following web page, <http://improve-usenet.org/>, for some insight into why
you're not reaching as many folks in rec.food.cooking as you could, if you
were a responsible netizen and stopped using Google Groups.

Which isn't necessarily a bad thing either. I'd call it a reverse
kill file, a gift from Google.

Ahh, so whenever the old stuck-in-the-mud RFC'ers are hassling me about new
thoughts, ideas and modus-operandi, I should post through Google Groups so
they won't see my rabble rousing? <eg>

Yes, this is the best way to filter those ultra-right wing guys out - or
is it ultra-left wing? Damn, I can never remember! I find the interface
too cumbersome but the appeal of being able to freely top post is
undeniable! :-)

It's hilarious that the Google Groups interface now has a "Report this post
as spam" utility - in spite of the fact that a huge amount of spam emanates
from GG daily...

It is also true that one can put a line in the beginning of posts that
prevents Google from stealing your post....I can't remember what it
is...something about "no archive." If anyone else knows and can post it, I'd
appreciate it.

They steal them and then sell them into slavery. "Don't be evil,"
indeed! Young, White, female posts should ALWAYS be x-no-archived,
since those bring the most cash on the black market.
