Early this year I was actively commenting
to a thread in the alt.astronomy newsgroup.
My connection to my ISP (verizon) was through
the Fullerton phone line. One day for an unknown
reason I was unable to either read any newsgroup
nor write to one using news.verizon.net. However
other news servers worked fine. Switching to
a different phone line in Placentia corrected the
problem --for a while. Then again suddenly I was
unable to access verizon news servers. I contacted
verizon, and eventually was connected with the
server specialist. He informed me that my problem
would be fixed within days. That was two months ago.
I am unable even today to access any newsgroup
thru the Fullerton or Placentia phone lines.
Today I added a german news server:
newscache0.freenet.de
With it I am again able to read the alt.astronomy
newsgroup. When I attempted to submit a message
to this newsgroup, however, verizon message was
that it was unable to do so. Is there anyone
who can help me out to resolve this issue?
By the way the message that I was trying to
send to alt.astronomy is listed below:
____________________________________________
(The header is: "another what if)

What if governments have been aware of the
existence of Alien visitors (with bases on Phobos
and Eros). What if it is impossible to reveal that
knowledge because then the aliens would also
find out? What if there is an intensive inter
governmental effort to develop secret defenses
against the very remote likelihood of these Alien's
invasions?

Zdenek (Denny) Jizba

P.S.: If the objects on Eros and Phobos are
indeed alien artifacts, in my opinion they may
have been abandoned millions of years ago.

(For some background information on the sources
of these questions go to: http://groups.google.com/
and search for: jizba eros
By the way, the header "erotic images" is NOT
my doing. Someone else replaced my original
header for that thread.)
