The original Usenet newsgroup, r.g.p covers the broadest range of poker topics. The google archives of this newsgroup are a treasure chest going back to the mid 1990s. In 2003 there were over 160,000 posts, so whatever your question is there's a good chance that you'll find the answer there already. And if not, there are many thousands of readers ready to join in a new discussion with you.
