I just happened to go browsing through our spool directory, and
I really find it quite amusing to note that in over three weeks, there
have been only 3 articles posted to net.internat, and two of them were
items crossposted from net.jokes.  

It still astonishes me to think about the amount of abuse that I
received way back when because I dared try to "rmgroup" the group
because it hadn't gone through the proper procedure for creation.  I
was told in no uncertain terms that there was lots of interest and more
than enough support to make it a viable newsgroup.  Right.

Of course, maybe I missed it.  Maybe all the people who obviously knew
so much used the group to solve all the international standardization
problems, using just 120 articles (total we have ever received in the
group) to do so.  Good job, folks.
