Who, you say? :-) This is an example of a special interest subgroup, and a successful one too, I might add. Therefore, I say - "GIVE IT TO THEM, ALREADY..." If Deadheads are willing to foot the bill for their own newsgroup, WHY NOT??? Net.tv.drwho *has not* led to the creation of endless net.tv.bulls**t groups, as some have suggested the Dead newsgroup would do to net.music. Perhaps those opposed to a special interest subgroup feel that this adds more "worth" to the music enjoyed by others, while somehow detracting from the value of their own listening choices. *So what's the big deal????????* Enough is enough ... Maybe we should discuss Gar's favorite method of making base ... :-) :-) :-) P.S. I am not now, nor have I ever been, a Deadhead - tho' many of my friends *are* ... When asked how to pronounce his name, he replied : "You can call me by my name, "Virt", or you can call me by my value, "worth". -- Happy Hacking, Carl (carl@ncr-tp) " Ask me no questions and I might not tell you any lies ... fnord ...
