Re net.columbia -> net.challenger 

NO, NO, NO !!!

I am quite sadden at the loss of the seven astronauts, and the
Challenger.  This proposal will do zilch to be bring them back.

It will only make life HARDER for the 1,000's of netnews
administrators.  There are enuf porblems with USENET administration
without having trivial renaming of newsgroups.

If you feel you must do something about this tragedy, write your
congressman, senators, and the president telling them that you want
the Challenger replaced, a fifth shuttle funded, and no more budget
cuts for the shuttle program.
