Recently I posted a warning about a mail-order hard disk company,
jb Technologies, inc. which had done me wrong.

An amazing number of people wrote me to request the embarrassing details
of the transaction.  This leads me to ask whether there is (or should be)
a newsgroup for the purpose of sharing information about which of the
large number of mail order houses are mistreating their customers.

So, is there such a group?  Is there *any demand* for such a group?
Shall we form alt.mailorder.scum?  [Feel free to suggest a better name]
Comments (and email) are welcome.
