Well, it's confirmed. The USENET server is gone. It was taken down from
lack of use. Before it was gone, though, you could access it from
outside the university campus.

I guess I could scan then entire 134.193.x.x octets for an active NNTP
server (there might just be a rouge one out there) but I'll have to
think about it.
