I've long suspected that few people had access to non-fj newsgroups
because the people there don't seem to have any idea of what's going
on in USENET. Do you have any idea how many have access to all the
stuff that's coming onto kuis (the feed site for Aegis)?

In general, I think there are few people interested in accessing
anything. I believe there are only about ~85 .co/.or in the kansai
which is very few, considering how many people there are here.
