   Old articles are, but no new ones.  Google Groups has stopped all 
Usenet activity and switched everything on their servers to read-only 
almost exactly two years ago. (yesterday)  They did that due to pressure 
from the rest of Usenet for their inability to control their spam.

   As far as new activity, there are several services that provide 
access and feeds.  We have a Usenet feed at LSSM for our staff.
