You are under a huge misconception. This isn't a Google Group (despite how
you found it); strictly speaking it's not a "forum" and there is no "owner".
This is Usenet. Even Google provides a link from their Groups page
explaining what Usenet is:

"What is a Usenet Newsgroup?

Usenet is an online bulletin board system that began at Duke University in
1979. Usenet users can post messages to newsgroups that can be read (and
responded to) by anyone who has access to the system through a newsreader.
Over the years, the number of newsgroups has grown into the thousands,
hosted all over the world and covering every conceivable topic."

When folks subscribe to RFC and announce they like cooking and say they'll
come back [later], we don't expect them to. Happens all the time, usually
when school has let out for a break. IOW we don't take it seriously.

Not to mention, trying to read RFC via Google Groups is pretty much
pointless due to the flood of Google Groupers posting SPAM for purses,
watches, ad infinitum. Google doesn't filter out ANY of the crap. So I
don't agree with their statement below, either:

"Google Groups contains the world's most comprehensive archive of Usenet
postings, dating back to 1981. Using Groups, you won't need a newsreader..."
If you don't have even a half-assed newsreader like mine LOL there's no way
to filter out the garbage.
