I don't want to add to the inevitable din, but Chuq advocates a number of
group cuts.  My personal taste agrees with him but let's leave the moderated
groups that have bona-fide moderation, rec.guns, rec.humor.funny.  The
traffic volume is relatively low and the content very desirable.  By "bona-
fide" I mean moderation whereby someone actually looks at it before it is
approved and sent on.

I do not know if it is so, but it appears to me that rec.music-gaffa is just
rubber stamped and forwarded.  Emphasis *I do not know*, Emphasis *it
appears to me*, so I could be very mistaken.

If indeed we must dissolve entire categories, I suggest that the moderated
groups go last.
