I RESENT this character at cae780's assumption that he has the right to
cancel a newsgroup on MY machine.  If he doesn't like a newsgroup, he can
have it turned off at the site which sends him that group.  I, for one,
like net.wobegon and I am glad that Adam at rabbit recreated it.  Adam has
been doing a good job keeping track of newsgroups (take a bow Adam) and I
believe I've seen him occasionally kill a newsgroup that was under-utilitized
or un-authorized (am I right?).

	Also, if someone wants info about how often a newsgroup is used, they
might consider checking with the person at rlgvax who has been keeping track of
the "top 25 *" news info.  I'd bet they actually keep track of every article
that is submitted (they'd have to to keep proper stats).
