Why doesn't Google Groups add this alt.windows7.general? I miss going
back and looking for old posts. It is also useful to use Google
Groups when the computer I access Usenet is down.

Bear in mind that if you connect from googlegroups an increasing number
of people are filtering out all googlegroups traffic. Nearly all the
trolls post from there, so it's very useful to the rest of us - one
simple filter and they're all gone. Sadly, so is anyone who isn't
causing trouble - but you can't have it all ways.
