Center Lines: 13 I vote nay on net.olympics unless traffic at the time warrents it. Net.sport is not one of the more used newsgroups and should be the proper forum for discussions of the olympics unless there is good reason to divide it out. Too, I think that it is generally a bad idea to create a newsgroup before a definite need for it is estab- lished. The creation of net.tv.tda was one of the least necessary actions to be taken on the net in a while.
