Indeed. The main purpose of my recommendation of E-S was as a suggestion for any non-troll posters who might like to have a more reputable News service than aioe to post with; one that doesn't get killfiled out of hand. It wasn't intended for anyone who already uses a decent service. As it happens, I switched from NIN to E-S when NIN started charging for access; NIN is a good service, there's no doubt about that. OTOH I find that free E-S is generally just as good, for my usage case at least.
Maybe I was just unlucky. I don't think we disagree fundamentally.
