Yes, yes, yes!!!

As it is, I usually just look at the Subject lines, sigh, and trash it all
because I can't take the time to go through 100 or so articles, mostly about
things I don't understand, and don't need to.  That's the main reason to
have separate newsgroups in general.  It's also the reason I don't even
let soc and talk groups on my machine any more.
