Well, you're right about slrn.  Half credit.

I'm probably the only one who liked trn3 and wishes it hadn't fallen
into the Bottomless Chasm of Nonmaintenance, nor morphed into the
atrocity of trn4.  But I miss it.  I'll even go as far as saying the
practical loss of trn3 is the biggest reason I no longer read usenet,
right above "wretched hive of scum and villainy" and "ship of fools",
but some distance from "troll bridge".

So many things I'd have liked to say on usenet, but I stashed instead in
my postponed-screed file.  (I always liked that "usenet" is an anagram
of "unsent".)  Thank you, hates-software, for dropping into that bucket.
