. Now we've gone from "nobody writes letters anymore" to "nobody writes
on the newsgroups anymore."


There are many Yahoo groups devoted to minis, one has about 2000 members.
There's another group called Small Stuff which started a long, long time ago
and that is a large group. These groups offer digests of daily posts and
there's lots of questions and answers and lots of info.

Newsgroups are difficult for some people to get the hang of using and if
they don't hide their email addy's they will get a lot of spam. I know, I
had to abandon an email addy of mine that I used when I joined this group a
lot of years ago. And then there are the trouble making trollers, something
that seems to be rampant in newsgroups. I don't go into the computer
newsgroups anymore because of them.

I guess the answer to why there's so few posts in this group is that there
are so many other options available.
