Tell AOL's and their newsreader to take a flying fuck.

Get a real newsreader (XNEWS?) and post to news.individual.net

No silly restrictions.  Just a great service.

232 characters?! That's about three lines of text. That's nothing! I
knew AOL sucked, but I didn't know it sucked that bad! (I guess it must
have changed since Joan's days...?)  :-O

It does have some silly restrictions, but if you're not going to make
any crosspost that includes alt.alien.vampire.flonk.flonk.flonk then you
might not notice (I don't know if there are any other "restricted"
groups like that).
