Find a news truck with a satellite dish, CNN, FOX, CBS, etc. Hijack the
truck - drive it around the corner and post back to rec.aviation*. They must
have some sort of satellite-internet uplink *somewhere* in there with all of
those wall mounted TV monitors.

Newsgroups aren't an obsession or even an addiction, I would call it more of
an acquired taste.
