NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO! Haven't we gone through this bullshit enough times in the past? (Sorry to flame at netnovices, but still...) net.music: For discussion of music. Period. If you don't see enough articles on classical/jazz/kazoo music/etc. in the newsgroup, then submit some!!!! Creating net.music.kazoo is not going to cause a flurry of kazoo articles to appear where once there were none!! The net is only as good as its contributors! -- Pardon me for breathing...
