I enjoy most of the submissions to net.wobegon, however this has never been a terribly active news-group. Lately, discussion seems to occur only when somebody suggests deleting the group. Shy-persons need have no more fear of speaking up about our favorite radio show in a folk newsgroup, than in this one. (Folkies tend to be supportive sensitive people.) Indeed, this might allow shy-persons to forget their shyness in the rush of excitement over the discovery that other persons share some of their interests. I propose that we discuss this possibility in this group prior to suggesting it in net.news.groups (where the whole world would be watching), so that we can present a united front to the net. That's an important consideration for us shy-persons. That's all for now. Have a Powder-Milk Biscuit. Heavens they're tasty. {ihnp4,ucbvax!amd70,hpda,sri-unix,harpo}!fortune!mbr
