Yes, this is possible. :-)  There a some email list handling systems that allow
for a newsgroup bridge.  I have the source code to one of them now actually.

At some point in the future (after my new house is built and I have 3 
DSL lines pulled),
we'll go to that method.  Until then...I should upload my images to 
Allyn... :-)
