No, I mean subjugating the guidelines for newsgroup creation so
you could get even with and punish the netters who voted for sci.
aquaria by forcing on them your own definition of what the net
should be.  We discussed this extensively over Christmas vacation,
Peter, surely you haven't forgotten?

I'll repeat my question about talk-->soc groups to you:  there
is a newsgroup that is being voted on now that changed its hier-
archy from talk to soc entirely because soc has better connect-
ivity.  Why haven't you exposed it as fraudulent and why haven't
roundly condemned it the way you did sci.aquaria?  The fact that
you haven't reeks of hypocrisy on your part.
