Which I did.
I do have to add the comment, though, that the poll only lets me make
one choice. In actuality, I use three different methods depending on
when I read the postings and why I am reading the postings.
If I am following the list when I am at home, then I read the postings
in Usenet.
If I am following the list at work, then tracking is done through Google
because my work PC doesn't support Usenet.
If I am looking for posts on a specific topic, and date is less
important, then I lurk in the list archives.
So, while I voted in the poll site, and indicated Usenet as my
mechanism, I have to come back to the list here to qualify my response.
