I think this newsgroup >is a holdover from pre-Distribution: days. However, others have pointed Exactly. This newsgroup was formed when our prior newsfeed decided to drop the old net group for SF. We felt that although we would not get the US feed, there might be enough people into SF in the Province alone to maintain a local group. Later, an alternative feed was set up and this group has generally fallen into unuse. Actually, I've had recent misgivings about the state of the current 'rec' group. I really don't like it much because it's *so* active. I dunno, when is Bakka's birthday anyway? :-) Cheers! -- Jim O. -- Jim Omura, 2A King George's Drive, Toronto, (416) 652-3880 ihnp4!utzoo!lsuc!jimomura Byte Information eXchange: jimomura
