Don't blame it on Google.
I wasn't, I was whinging about the - Hide quoted text -
nonsense some google uses leave in their replies.
Which is also Google's fault.
Just like about all the spam you find in newsgroups. It's almost
always posted via Google groups, because their disposable accounts
make abuse reports worthless.
That's true, but a different problem. There's no excuse
whatsoever for their news interface to work as poorly as it
does. It's not like they're exactly breaking new ground here.
They do have to make it work within a browser, which is not
designed for this sort of thing. The only real problem I have
with it is that it keeps crashing Firefox. This is obviously a
bug in Firefox (a program shouldn't crash, no matter what it is
sent), but the problem only occurs when I'll reading news
through Google (and then only when I'm running it with a remote
X server---for various reasons, the only way I can access news
at this site is through Google, using Firefox running on a Linux
box, addressing an X server on a Sparc under Solaris).
