I'm not so sure that mod.jokes is such a good idea (how could
one person remember everything that came before?).  How about
postings like in net.newuser?  You know, posting the canonical
list of lightbulb, Father Goose, ... jokes every other month
or so.  There would be some "collector" some where who would
coordinate the collection and posting of the jokes.  This would
solve a lot of the duplication and still leave the current forum
of net.jokes.
