| Does this mean that someone is spending millions if not tens of millions
| of dollars per year to support 'soc.singles'?  
+---------------

For a single site, not $M.  For ALL sites that pass soc.singles, quite likely.
And if the newsgroup gets lots of postings, we're talking even more.  Phone
service isn't cheap, and the `world' distribution causes messages to be passed
along even more expensive intercontinental links.
