    Greetings Rick,

        At present, I don't seem to be experiencing the
    time delay problem here...however...it seems to be an
    ongoing problem with yahoo groups, and it seems to
    present itself on a rotating system. Several weeks
    ago, I was having difficulty receiving any posts from
    any of my groups (approx 10 I am in), and when I did
    receive them, they were about 24 hours later.
    I even had some members accusing the group moderators
    of 'withholding" or censoring, their messages. Alas!
    was all a yahoo time delay, and nothing more.
        In any case, hold fast, your time delay will be
    over shortly.
    Thanx for the info Rick :)
