Oh, no.  "rec.music.floyd" is the coolest, despite all the previous
precedence of "gdead" et al.

BTW, our site runs a Floyd list ("eclipse").  There are 181 entries in the
list, less than ten of which look like exploders (based on their names).
Are there any other Floyd mailing lists?  I'll try to get eclipse's
maintainer to add his comments.
