Newsgroup Request - net.bizarre Message-ID: <615@k.cs.cmu.edu> Date: Mon, 21-Oct-85 23:17:14 EDT Article-I.D.: k.615 Posted: Mon Oct 21 23:17:14 1985 Date-Received: Wed, 23-Oct-85 06:33:40 EDT Distribution: net Organization: Carnegie-Mellon University, CS/RI Lines: 14 Xref: watmath net.news.group:3927 net.flame:12437 net.misc:8737 I would like to suggest the creation of a new newsgroup -- net.bizarre. This newsgroup would be used to discuss strange food, strange street signs, strange animals (and animal simulations), large prime numbers, Jenny the operator at Time-Life books, and other "strange postings and reports of odd occurrences". I apologize for cross-posting to net.flame and net.misc, but it is clear that the people who would be most interested in net.bizarre don't read net.news.group. If they did, net.bizarre wouldn't have been deleted in the first place. -- UUCP: ..!seismo!k.cs.cmu.edu!mcb ARPA: mcb@k.cs.cmu.edu "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."
