|If this is true, the net will soon become a place NONE of us want to be!

	I think so too.  Although, judging by your further
	fulminations and frothings, not for the same reason.

|Re-propogate talk.bizarre RIGHT NOW! Lock it out of visibility on your system

	I, for one, resent this comment.  My postings are
	"crap"?  Have you even READ them?  I thought not.

	And as for "legitimate" <snort>, I just HAVE to ask
	you what on earth you think USENET is for.  Can
	you say "recreation"?  SURE you can.  Now tell us
	what "legitimate" means in that context.

|I can't believe anybody would be stupid enough to follow the brainless
|suggestion that bizarre-ites be goaded like this. They spill over enough
|already!

	Support that "spill over" assertion with fact.  I 
	suggest you start with the crossposting ratios posted
	in news.lists.  Call me back when you've read them.

	WHEN will people learn that the net needs good neighbors?
	If you don't want it [sci.aquaria, talk.bizarre] available
	on your system, FINE.  But feed it downstream like a 
	cooperative dude, huh?
