- The admin's refuse to carry gropus that they don't want to. Simple as
- that. Not only will they not carry such disk-hogs as alt.binaries.erotica
- etc. but will not even carry alt.flame.abortion! Why? Because they say so!
- Well I for one am not taking this crap. I am embarking on the uncharted and
- perilous journey (dramatic pause) of gaining complete access!!! Well, not
- quite. I *am* trying other ways to read and post to the.net. For example:
- some kind individuals shared with me method of posting to both alt.sex and
- alt.sex.bondage via 2 daemons at other universities. Not exactly fabulous
- knowledge, but progress nonetheless. I am continuing to ask netters for all
- the info they can give me in the hopes that I will be able to publish a
- sumary of these techniques for general consumption. I am told by friends at
- vasrious other sites that Penn State is not the only offender, and is even
- more liberal than some! So, I now throw down the gauntlet and ask any and
- all of you netters out there to follow me to the fray! Well, you don't really
- have to do that, but it would be nice if you could drop me some E-mail telling
- me any neat little techniques and tidbits you've learned about the usenet
- concerning reading, posting, FTP'ing, telnetting, etc. as long as it's in some
- way relevant to the issue at hand. I'm not asking for hints on how to hack
- into NASA's supercomputers, or anything, just info you may have happened upon.
- I'll try to neatly compile the responses and post them, and maybe set up an
- FTP site for those w/o any usenet access. Thanx in advance; let's get 'em!

- "Velcro is your friend!" Ask me why!
