Problem seems to be that some of the founding fathers still
bulk download everything over dialup so they can read it
with a text editor offline. It would be of little or no
consequence otherwise.
I'm on dial-up and retrieve a list of articles for the newsgroups I
wish to read, my offline reader connects with my isp over dial-up and
downloads those I've selected.

NO I won't go to DSL until I can afford to get another machine going
running linux to be the internet machine around here. OTherwise this
old dos box is gonna be it. finding a cd-rom drive with linux drivers
is going to have to wait right now as I'm paying my lady's health
insurance premiums through cobra to the tune of $300 a month and then
paying her big drug bill too, she's diabetic with a heart condition
etc. NEedless to say this old musician/audio guy goes without any
kind of health coverage, and without a few other things too while this
is going on. HOpefully she finds another day gig soon which provides
her health care coverage.

HEy but she's over 50, white and her kids are grown. She's done her
duty to the party and bred some more people so according to these
right-wingers people such as she aren't important. THis old
libertarian wouldn't mind that so much if they didn't go out trying to
stifle civil rights etc. the way they do.

Until the budget affords it meanwhile I'll continue with my dial-up
connection and offline reader. There just aren't the dollars for
anything else at the moment.
