Google dissatisfaction!

There are lots of things I don't understand. Heck. I don't even understand how the light comes on when I flip the switch. But. Something I really really don't understand is why anybody tolerates Google. For little more than a dollar a month you can just gently and without effort read without the hassle. And. Furthermore. Recently this computer was simply eaten alive by a vicious attack. When the techy folks recovered the system, they left me with Google as my search engine. ( I guess search engine is the right term.) When I searched for something, before I could see the answers, I had to pass by the 'paid' ( I suspect) subscribers' ads. Or something like that. Soon as I could I got it changed back to my favorite. And I am so happy for news.individual.net. They only annoy me at Christmas when they bring their children to work (and leave them) and I need to tell my awful Christmas joke. Just FWIW. Polly

That's a bit expensive compared to my news server.

your bandwidth in blocks that never expire until they're used up.We bought 10 GB in May 2010 for $4.50 and that will probably lastlonger than we do. Just logged in to check the account and here's what it says: You Have Used 0.48362 GBs Of Your 10 GBs Purchased. Had it been all used, the cost would have been 32 cents a month but, there's over 9.5 GB left. At that rate, our news service costs roughly

3 cents a month. They carry all newsgroups including binaries and, their retention is exceptional.
