	Why is it that most of the notes in net.space recently have been
about STS-9? Doesn't this stuff belong in net.columbia? Is there no gateway
for net.columbia? I see that most of the offending(?) notes are from ARPA.
I realize I am hardly a regular contributor to either notesfile, but it seems
that, with so much interest in the STS program among ARPA people, a gateway
to a more appropriate newsgroup (net.columbia) could be established.
Then net.space could get back to the non-STS topics of old, like space
elevators, launch loops, space stations, etc., and leave the Shuttle to
net.columbia.
