If you had given it a shot you would have found this free nntp server, I
found it on the first google search i performed...

It may either a) have not existed at the time the ISP/GG woes began, b)
failed some of my criteria, or c) not happened to be findable with the
queries I used. Those factors may have changed in the interim (I'm
assuming that a) if true did in fact change :))...

A cursory examination curiously fails to reveal any apparent flaws,
which would seem to be a first. What's its likely longevity?

If I have reason to suppose it's not brand-new and perhaps fairly
ephemeral, or on some kind of downward spiral, I'll probably now switch
to it; thanks.

Oops. Spoke too soon. I take back the "thanks" part.
