There is only one war, and it's not the rich against the poor,
the blacks against the whites, the Federation against the Borg,
or the Democrats versus the Republicans. It's those of us who
aren't complete idiots against those of us who are.

Did you try searching Google for "how to link to a newsgroup"? I get a
million hits, and at least 3 of the first 10 look like they would answer
this.

I'd say the following is better:

<a href="news:alt.comp.freeware" title="May open in your preferred newsreader">Usenet:
alt.comp.freeware</a>, also <a
href="http://groups.google.com/groups?group=alt.comp.freeware"
title="alt.comp.freeware, archived at Google">archived at Google</a>

How dare you befoul my eyes with such hideous markup!
I feel the sudden urge to take a shower.
