But talk.religion.misc is a subgroup of talk.religion, so how can
talk.religion.misc exist without talk.religion (at least with my
current news software (2.10.3 4.3bsd beta release 6/6/86))?
Whenever they create talk.religion.misc, then remove talk.religion,
they automatically remove talk.religion.misc.

I've also noticed a similar problem in the last checkgroups message;
net.announce is gone, but net.announce.arpa-internet still exists.
Is this an oversight?
