I hadn't heard of this.
At the moment chmeee.pronetsolutions.com is not replying to a ping and anyway
using the Internet before 6 has an on the spot penalty of being quartered and
dragged through the streets. So I will look at it when I can.

Is the idea of forwarding undigested onto a dedicated and moderated newsgroup
a stinker folks? Then DejaNews could come up with the 180M to archive it, which
is what they do for a living after all.
