All I wanted was for those that use the group for something other than it's original charter (BIRDING!) to prefix their article headers. I believe this was the consenus about a year ago. However, I should have been smart enough to realize that this would start a spate of articles about "Let's split the group", "Why don't _you_ use OUTDOOR", etc. Once again, I apologize. Splitting the group won't happen. The realities of newsgroup life dictate that we must have at least 100 votes, which I don't think we could get. Somebody wrote the other day, something like "...is it really too much time and trouble to wade through the newsgroup. After all, it's not _that_ busy". Well, the answer is "No, it's not too difficult". Sooo.... I withdraw my request, and I will somewhat grudgingly live with indoor and outdoor postings coexisting. > > -- > barbara.bowen@Orlando.NCR.COM (...ncrlnk!ncrorl!bjb) > NCR Corporation Engineering & Manufacturing - Orlando > 3200 Lake Emma Rd.
