And if those three people were that interested in sharing pictures of
their pride and joy with the aviation community then one would think
they would have both the intelligence and decency to share them by
posting their own pictures to..... alt.binaries.pictures.aviation


*sigh*

I know you're a troll, but (for those who may be wondering) here are the two
reasons alt.binaries isn't workable for the "Rogue's Gallery":

1. Many ISPs don't carry the binary newsgroups. As a result, many people
simply don't get to see the cool pix that are posted there.
2. Most ISPs that DO carry the binary groups only archive them for a few
days. I am only able to "see" the pix for about four days before my ISP
deletes them.

To make "alt.binaries.pictures.aviation" a viable alternative, all 77
participants would have to re-post their pictures every four days.
