I've been accessing this group through the WebTV interface. My days with
WebTV are coming to an end.

My question is how do I access this group with a PC. Is there a web site
I go to ? If so, could someone please post the URL.

Thanks, Art.

Much better get a free usenet news-programme and access usenet via your ISP
news-server.

I use Xnews.

With the problems associated with Google Groups and the amount of free
News feeds Google wouldn't be a good suggestion for accessing c.l.j. It
suffices for research/searching the archives but not for posting.

Do not use Google Groups for posting, its interface is still flawed.
(It is good for research though, you should have tried that before.)

Install a decent newsreader application instead; out of personal
experience, I can recommend Mozilla Thunderbird for Windows and
KNode for GNU/Linux.

More questions about Usenet, NetNews and newsreaders are answered
in the newsgroups

news.announce.newusers
news.newusers.questions
news.software.readers

and in the appropriate newsgroups of your local hierarchy.

Thanks for the replies and info.

I forwarded it all to my PC account and will start learning how to do
this.

Happy New Year.

Later, Art.
