In my mind, to most of the net, -it's pretty much a non-issue. A simple matter not worthy of pretend -participatory democracy. In the middle of all this mess that's occuring, you aren't sure if there are people as emotional about newsgroup creation as I am? I had thought of myself as being rather mellow about the whole situation, espcecially compared to some of the people out there (I didn't even insult your mother :-) ). This is Usenet. People will get emotional and irrational about even the smallest things. Newsgroups are big things, and will *always* generate sound and fury; most of the time signifying nothing. -- Performance is life. Entertainment is death. - World Entertainment War
