Turbine,

Hmmm. You don't get out enough if you think AvSig is the -mother- of
all forums,

Ah, the joys of usenet. Instant insult from the clueless. Oh well...

I said "of all PILOT forums". This from Avsig: "The Aviation Special
Interest Group (AVSIG) is the world's oldest international computer forum
community. AVSIG was born in the early 1980s on CompuServe, a dial-up
computer information service which was a proprietary forerunner to the
internet and world-wide web. "

You know anything older? Let me know.

and if they offer a Usenet gateway - I couldn't find it
(assuming the OP was after Usenet access).

How did you get that idea? He asked for web-based forums. Avsig is.

Not true. If you want to read offline you simply print a thread or save
it.

Obviously, you don't use busy forums...
