Our site has directories for the following "fa" type groups, but we've never gotten anything in them. Is it in our news feed, or don't they get gatewayed anymore? arpa-bboard bitgraph digest-p energy info-vax railroad teletext -- The padded cell of Gene Spafford CSNet: Spaf @ GATech ARPA: Spaf.GATech @ UDel-Relay uucp: ...!{sb1,allegra,ut-ngp}!gatech!spaf ...!duke!mcnc!msdc!gatech!spaf

Of the groups listed, arpa-bboard and info-vax are most certainly alive and well on the Arpanet. The fa.* groups seem to be riddled with reliability problems; I'm not sure where the sink is, but a bunch of articles are disappearing somewhere along the line. Since you're on CSNET, you might want to consider getting the fa groups of interest via direct mail and routing them into news; we do that here and it works out very well, albeit a little more expensive.
