The bigpond server is porked.
It is only propagating posts from bigpond customers to bigpond customers.
no one else on usenet gets posts.
I am not phoning any more after 1 hour yesterday and 40 min today, plus a
stupid answer to an e-mail :

Turcaud is a Frenchman who did a lot of prospecting in WA years ago.

He claims that he found the huge Telfer gold deposit. He also claims that
BHP and others started mining Telfer and gave him no money nor recognition.

I don't know what the truth is. A book has been written on the saga.

It looks like we can only see posts put up by other Bigpond users.I can
see my original post and your reply Alan but I can not see Tacan's reply
using Bigpond.Service status page didn't show any known problem.

That's ok; I just tried sending them an email using one of the electronic
forms on their website - I pressed "Submit" and got "Internal Server Error"
in reply! The whole lot of them are up the pharking Khyber!!

I;m getting the posts from Bigpond here in Seattle via Easynews, so they
appear to at least be getting ~out~ to the 'net.
