	People are generally skeptical.  They are skeptical about particular
things.  Having a groupo about skepticism seems to me to be a waste of
time.  As far as the other groups go.  It is my experience that posters
as opposed to readers tend to be true beleivers who get both mad and even
when hostile followups occur.  It would seem to me that sci.skeptic would
be a very low traffic group.
