Is there any way to convince net readers that:
    Everyone sees net.general so posting to net.general,net.whatever is
    redundant

    10,000 readers see net.general articles so only post things that are
    of interest to everyone.  Or general announcements.  Otherwise there
    are specific groups to fit almost every topic and there is always
    net.misc

What is the best way to convince people to use net.general properly?  I 
liked the idea that everyone post a note to the offender, but when I tried
this I got abuse.  And the poster just kept on posting trivialities to
net.general.  Any new ideas?
