Who pays for USENET?  I pay for USENET.

Every month I get a bill in the mail it says

	USENET		$4,000,000,000.00
	Mi. sales tax	$  160,000,000.00
	---------------------------------
	Total		$4,160,000,000.00

	Terms: NET 30

I write out a check, put it in the enclosed envelope, mail it off to the
address it says, and hope that it arrives before the end of the next month.

Oh, by the way, bad news this month - I also pay for Prodigy, and this
month the rates went up, so it looks like I'll be late on my Usenet bill. 
Last time this happened they were not too pleased and shut off service -
let's see if the credit rating is good enough this time that I can string
them along.  If they won't take it it'll be the death of the net as we
know it.
