	Last week dave@galaxia.Newport.RI.US also offered to take a
poll.  I suggest you two combine your efforts and repeat your requests
for a straw poll every other day or so for two weeks.

	Whoever does the counting, please be sure that you have my vote
for comp.sys.3b1.general and comp.sys.3b1.sources.

	I fully believe that we will better serve the general populace
of 7300/3b1 users by having these discussion groups in the mainstream
distribution.  I know the problems which John Ruckster went through to
get connected in Colo. Springs and the troubles I went through before
that.

	I am also aware that there are 7300/3b1 users who post only to
the comp.sys.att group who apparently do not now get the unix-pc.*
distribution.
