People like you just lower the value of NGs. I disagree entirely. I am quite happy to read posts (on alt.comp.shareware) in any language I understand and to ignore them in languages I don't. I am very pleased that the guy found a solution to his problem. If you really want to see what devalues newsgroups you don't have to look too far (on alt.comp.shareware) - and it has nothing to do with national language. If there were a us.comp.shareware or a uk.comp.shareware I would expect posts in English - but the internet is now international and has to comprehend a mutilingual world. Of course most posts here will be in English as they get the widest readership, but that's no reason to get shirty about the others. Lets's be a bit cosmopolitan about this.
