I have been told by many that several Internet Services Providers are
not offering Akr.* newsgroups. We suspect that the fear is the threat of
competiton rather than performing any public service. This really hits
at akr.freenet & akr.biz and even akr.jobs for many reasons.

For what it's worth, I've already started a log of these reports with
the intent of public publication in the Spring designed to announce the
providers that make local information available.

Best 'net regards, & Hello from Akron Ohio!
