Jen, you are wrong, you don't understand how it works.

You almost get it right and then you screw up because you clearly don't
understand how it works.

You clearly don't understand the simple fact that in order for
msnews.microsoft.com to be *a part of Usenet*, they *have* to *PEER*
with other newsservers. Microsoft does *NOT* peer with *any* other
newsservers*, therefore msnews.microsoft.com *is not* a part of Usenet.
They simply make their *.public.* groups "available to anyone *ON* the
Usenet"(if a NSP's admin adds the microsoft.public.* hierarchy).
If you can *prove* otherwise, I'll be glad to "apologize" ;)

"Newsgroup. A particular group within the Usenet. In October 2000, there
were more than 100,000 newsgroups. Each newsgroup is named according to a
hierarchical convention. Categories such as "rec," "comp," or "misc"
identify the general subject of the newsgroup. Additional terms are
sometimes added, uniquely defining the newsgroup within a collection of
others. Examples: comp.lang.perl.misc, rec.pets.cats,
Microsoft.public.access."
