Well, the Microsoft news server is NOT the 'source'. If I were you, I'd
use, if I had the choice, whatever server had the best performance rather
than complaining. I just noticed your post; it is stamped 12 minutes prior
to my reply stamp. And when you use the term 'this' in reference to a news
server it really has no meaning. You don't even know which particular
server is being used; and there are tens of thousands, if not hundreds of
thousands.
