Um, just a question, and maybe I don't get this complex Usenet stuff: if you guys are so hot, why is your email @mail.sprintlink.com, instead of @net-link.com? Haven't figured out sendmail yet? Frankly, I don't think you have a clue about how the net works and don't give a crap about the state of Usenet.
