I like that!

Hmmm. Futures sounds like it has something to do with the stock market.
Personally, I dont like the group much, except as a place I can not subscribe
to. In other words, I think the whole reason for this newsgroup is that we are
hoping such people who like to compare machines or bitch (like -MB-) will post
there and the rest of us will unsubscribe to it and be free of them. But I don't
think it will work. Those kind of people like an audience, and if they know we
aren't there to listen to them they will just come looking for us and post
there.

But if we are to have it, how about .bench? or .bitch :-)
