All this talk about 100 no votes is clearly useless as we are watching a new way of creating groups develop. The way it's done ? - propose a group - create controversy - swamp news.groups with hundreds of useless arguments on how other people's hobbies are rubish and how divine theirs is... - someone creates tre group they want just to get the traffic out of news. groups There it is, and there is not much we can do about it i'm afraid. I will oppose to sci.* for everything concerning their fish. Give 'em a rec group or a fish dinner. Someone stated that as the sci. people were clearly more well-spoken and had better arguments, he would vote in their favour. Don't forget that for something as elementary as this I don't have to indulge in pages full of rhetoric to prove it, and it should not be expected of me... Greetings, Guido
