I sent a message through their web form, disguising it as a sales question so 
that I didn't have to provide existing account information. This is an IQ test 
for their sales department - will they get my message to someone who 
understands USENET?

Great Patricia, this is a good idea!  Let's hope for the best.

Kind regards

Perhaps looking to the owners of synchro.net (not time.synchro.net), which 
appears to be a hosting service for BBSs.  My theory is that someone created a 
BBS<-->Usenet bridge, which is broken, and is running it on synchro.net's 
services.

I've been too busy to investigate it myself.

Good luck,
Daniel.
