Re: University of Alaska's USENET feed - comp.os.linux.misc?

Kyle,
It's not your news reader.  The server has very limited disk
space and only picks up a few new items as older ones expire.
As Robert said, there is supposed to be a replacement server
in the works, but it will probably still be run by the alaska.edu
domain rather than uaf.edu.
