Sorry about that; I hadn't intended to "sneak attack" the Amiga group,
and it's not for my own reasons anyway, since I'd read any/all the
subgroups that were created.  It seemed a better idea to have the
grand poobahs in news.groups say "sounds good" or "sounds ungood"
before anyone in comp.sys.amiga had to deal with it.  Lord knows we
talk about enough here without also talking about how we talk about
things?  (so what I am doing?  Triple-indirect recursion? :-))

Well, if the news.groupies don't care (I guess they don't) then I
suppose it's time for the Amigans to take action.

>I prpose [sic] the following: Send me mail.

A good idea (that's "send Mike mail" not "send Bob mail").  Would you
like to see comp.sys.amiga split into subgroups?  What topics?
