So tell me exactly how long
has it been since ANY .dfw
news groups have been started?

An awful long time I believe
or is it just that Google won't
carry any new ones for some
reason?

I guess the real question I have
would be just how many .dfw groups
are in existance?

Just the few on Google's short
little list or many more?

Where could one go to see a
complete listing of all LIVE
news groups? 

I want more local STUFF.

Thanks, KibbilsAndBits

Well this all I see.

dfw.eats
dfw.maps 
dfw.flame
dfw.music 
dfw.forsale
dfw.news 
dfw.games
dfw.personals 
dfw.general
dfw.politics 
dfw.internet
dfw.singles 
dfw.job
dfw.test 
dfw.jobs
dfw.usenet 
dfw.usenet.stats 


I like .eats and .forsale and .music
but not much of the other stuff.

Seems like this is the exact same
list I have seen for over five years
ago.

I sure wish there was a moderated 
G or PG rated dfw.dating

I mean I would like to find a 
regular old girlfriend.

Almost all I see ever see on
dfw.singles and dfw.personals is
kinky strange stuff. It mainly
looks like gays and hookers and
swingers and such hooking up.

I mean I'm not a prude but
kinky pay sex is just not what
I want to find.

Also it would be cool to have a
dfw.platonic friends news group so
people could post their more
mundane interests and be able to
arrange real world meetings with
like minded friends. That sort of
thing just doesn't seem to fly on
dfw.singles and dfw.personals but
then again that's not really what
they are for.

Well, we're all here to serve you, of course.

They don't mess with what works well.

Ah, a troll.  I wasn't sure if you were serious, but now I see that 
you're not.  Nevermind.
