So hello I am a regular on usenet just in a different group. Does
anyone ever come here on a regular basis?

I just bought a tao tao jet 50 scooter and I have assembled it and it
is fun to drive around town. I have a blast driving it all over town.
I put 400 km on it in the first 4 days... Does anyone know anything at
all about the Tao Tao?

Much of Usenet has become a wasteland... (un)Social Media and web
forums has fragmented the userbase, such that one can no longer go to one
location to find information -- and unlike Usenet, one is stuck with an
always-on connection as web sites can't do batch download/upload which was
the standard practice of Usenet/GEnie/Delphi/CompuServe (when one paid by
connection time, having software that did batch downloads of new messages
followed by disconnecting was the norm).

alt.fan.furry and alt.lifestyle.furry used to be heavy traffic groups.
Now they are lucky to get one post a month -- usually from someone who just
discovered them.

Aprilia Scarabeo 500 ABS -- the one with the touring body; a year after I
bought it Aprilia redesigned it with practically no storage and street
racer angles.
