Please, let's *not* have usa.*! Subject and distribution shouldn't be
tied up like that; having to do things that way is a sign of a lack
in the tools we use, or perhaps in our use of them.  (I refer any
interested parties to a discussion that started out as a cognitive
engineering question in net.cog-eng on just this subject.)

Let us have tools that ask for and honor distribution requests on messages,
please, not a proliferation of groups to try to solve a problem that
groups were never meant to solve.
