Nor would I.  But do keep in mind DECUServe is more than a newsgroup Q&A
environment.  It is a moderatored environment with online search of all notes
that have been posted.  What DECUServe buys you IMHO is a better signal to
noise ratio which in turn saves you time.   For example repeat Q&A's are few
and far between on DECUServe.  Now the value added may not appeal to you and
that is OK.  But I do agree if all it was news for 75/year it wouldn't have
much of a future.
