Sorry but I've been reading alt.aquaria for quite some time now (at least
since before the FIDO thing) and it was carried on our local mainframe in
Naperville and is now carried on the Netnews Server Machines. Of the over
8000 people that read it at Bell Labratories, over 8000 of them get alt.
groups, excluding alt.sex.* and maybe alt.drugs and those were removed in
the not to distant past. As far as I know we've (at Naperville) ALWAYS
gotten alt.. I find little assuance in your stance on Europe if you 
believe this about AT&T.
