When I ran Linux I used an excellent newsreader called Slrn. It is a command-line app, but I find it the best app out there for reading news. It just seems to involve me more in the act of newsreading, where GUI apps always leave me feeling like I am outside looking through a window. I was delighted to find that Slrn is avaialble for Mac OS X and can be installed through Fink as easily as this: 'apt-get install slrn' -- To reply by email you must remove your shorts first!
