Or alternatively, 4237 could simply follow the new da Silva voting process and call for a vote today for talk.antique-radio or perhaps misc.antique-radio since it fulfills Chuq's requirement that the group be complimentary but not overlapping. Just make sure you call it an "opinion poll" on a newsgroup name and not an actual vote, otherwise you'll violate Peter's guidelines to say nothing of his common sense. Hope this helps.
