-That is the whole reason I am demanding a
-new newsgroup (note the use of the word demand, not propose, I'm just demanding
-nicely :->). And lumping them all together won't alleviate the problem of
-traffic, it will all just wind up in one place instead of five. Get my point?

Demand?  Pardon my arrogance, but who are you to *demand* a newsgroup?

-    The bottom line to this whole thing is I am not going to give up now. On
-December 17, the call for votes shall be put out. If it's cast down (which I
-doubt, knowing all the support I've received through e-mail), I'll start over
-again. As long as I have a telephone, I'm going to do what I can to put
-rec.music.pfloyd in it's proper place on the net.

I've seen support for rec.music.pfloyd.  Fine, a call for votes is in order.
However, should the vote for r.m.p fail, the only proper place for it will
be in junk.   And if you call for another vote soon afterwards, I may feel
it my duty to politic in a way that put the whole sci.aquaria thing to shame.

Btw...have you considered a mailing list?  Or an alt group?
