As a Sympatico user, I will go on record as saying that their NNTP feed is one of 
the most mis-managed I have seen. And I am not talking about binary groups, I am 
talking about their management of the core newsgroups (the so-called "Big 8" (or 
Big 7?) text-only hierarchies). I have not seen such a level of USENET mis-
management with any provider I have done business with.
