Some mailing lists I read via gmane *originate* on google groups (web2py list, for one). Other people posting from google groups are not malicious/trolls/jerks/spammers - and honestly until I started using slrn again, I didn't understand what all the fuss was about - gui news readers like Thunderbird handle the messages from there just fine. Maybe slrn needs an upgrade to gracefully handle html formatted messages - good bad or otherwise, they're pretty much here to stay, kind of like google groups. There are programs like lynx, elinks, etc. that can handle simple html via a cli program... so its not entirely beyond the realm of possibility. -- All right, breaks over.
