      This controversy over should there be a soc.culture.pakistan is 
really ridiculous.  The net resources do not belong to any one group of
people and indians trying to prevent pakistanis from having their own 
discussion group is like fighting against the formation of something that
can't hurt us and it is going to be created out of resources that do not belong 
to us.  I see no harm in pakistanis owning a newsgroup if they want to.  
So my vote regarding scp :  I really don't care.
