SuperNews seems to have discovered it this afternoon. When I first
followed up to a (rare) post there, it gave its "unknown newsgroup" or
"newsgroup doesn't exist" (whatever) message, but when I responded to your
follow-up, was accepted without comment.

The poster in question put "alt.steiner.coffee.bar" and
"alt.steiner.coffee", as well as at least 5 other newsgroups.
It was complaining that it could not find "alt.steiner.coffee"
when I tried to followup to it (I didn't go through with
the followup).

Time passed (as it tends to), and then today, they decided that, of all the
silly groups, lava.lounge itself was bogus.

That'll teach us to criticize 'em!

Yes, I got a message telling me they refused to even check it for me.
