I don't think so. We make thousands of judgments every day based on
insufficient information, and this is one of them. Intellectual snobbery,
perhaps...

People who don't understand the basic principles of something they've
apparently done for quite a while are either incurably ignorant or
hopelessly stupid. I repeat: It may be noted that the opinions of such
people are rarely worth reading.

Is there a snob factor going on here?

Ann to make it real complicated for the most here. I need not even a
newsreader.
I can use telnet.
Yes and also then I have to use a newsserver, in this you are quite right.

But by using a newsreader like Thunderbird or Outlook or Agent etc...
life is much more comfortable here.

What we both try to explain is the fact Google does not own this
particularly newsgroup or Usenet.

Well, to be precise, you use Thunderbird which downloads the posts
from a news server. So it's not quite as simple as just getting a
newsreader. For example, I use the newsreder Agent and get the posts
from news.individual.net

People who don't understand how the internet works. always assume that
google owns the groups. And often they won't be told any different.

Snip...

Put on your glasses Ms.Brainy.
The "here" is the newsgroup sci.med.vision of Usenet.
Google is only the instrument YOU use to look in to it.
I use the newsreader Thunderbird and doing so I do not have the problems
you have.

When I reported it was impossible to post here, the "here" is the
google usenet group sci.med.vision. In fact, other google groups (if
not all)were also disabled for a couple of days. I did not subscribed
to MedKB, bluebird or any other similar group, but to my surprise my
posts ended up there.

It seems that things are back in order now, after substantial delays.
I have no stocks in google, yahoo or any other bird, I have no loyalty
to any of them and I don't care one way or the other. I am "here"
only for issues of eye and vision. Case closed.

Dear Ms. Brainy,

You are correct. I think they were "working" on their
system, and a number of posts were delayed. It looks
like it is now fixed.

Thunderbird DOES work well. So does Agent (by Forte).

Jan is not using MedKB. MedKB, whatever that is, is copying the
messages from Usenet. Jan and myself are inserting our posts directly
to Usenet, not using a gateway. Or a web interface to Usenet like
Google. We use software programs called news readers that directly read
posts from the news servers and insert posts to Usenet, to the news
servers.
