I think Google do need to make it a lot clearer what is usenet and what is
a
Google group. While Usenet gets a mention against the details for this
group if you "explore groups", if, like I normally do, you use the
advanced
search and get straight to the posts, I can't see anything obvious on that
page saying it's Usenet.
A lot of people do confuse the two, not the way this person is, but just
assume all groups are Google groups. It needs clarifying and people
posting
through Google need to know the situation.
