Translation:

Can't reply-using google, maybe the server too busy? Can read but when
I try to reply to a post it stalls and goes no further- Anybody else

Dear Peter,

Google Groups for RBT has had a bad case of indigestion for several
days and is still stuck on Friday.

Other groups, such as rec.bicycles.misc are working.

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.tech

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.misc

It's probably a technical problem with the group.

Cheers,

Carl Fogel

Dear Peter,

I forgot to mention a free alternative similar to Google Groups, which
lets anyone use a browser to look at RBT without downloading like a
newsreader:

Like Google, you have to join to post to RBT on Cycling Forums.
They're up and running and showing RBT, so anyone who can't see past
Friday on Google Groups and has something desperately important to
post might give them a try.

If nothing else, CyclingForums has excellent taste in initials.

Here's the stalled Google Groups:

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.tech

Cheers,

CF

It just doesnt' want to hear your opinion about alternative bearing balls.

Visually that looks much better to me than the Google interface.

Dear Tim,

You may like Google better if you switch to its tree view.

Unfortunately, the ability of CyclingForums to search the archives is
poor compared to Google Groups.

Hmm, I think I'll stick to a newsreader. It's much faster and more
efficient to use for my purposes- and not quite as Luddite as my
preference for friction shifting.
