Wasn't the point... I never said they were. HTML is at version 4.0(I
think?) now, AND we've added extra layers of stuff you can use
alongside of it. The internet is a free-flowing evolving place... to
try to protect one little segment like usenet from ever evolving is
just ensuring it's slow death, IMHO.
That's all...
