If her ISP connects her to the Internet, she can access both email
AND Usenet. In fact, she is doing it now. She has a Yahoo email
address, and is posting through Google. The question was, are there
other ways to access Usenet and there are. I gave her links. Names
of servers she can physically send a check to, that will give her access
to Usenet via the web, if nothing else.
