Actually, there was only one aquaria group until Richard Sexton went nuts: alt.aquaria. Then Richard decided to defraud the admins of the net, and create sci.aquaria to improve its distribution. Any claim otherwise, when Richard has been documented to say that the improved distribution was the reason for sci.*, is disinformation. >The aquaria people didn't call for the REC group, it was >CREATED without discussion and/or vote.

You jokers made the second one. There was one group. Richard created the second one, and the third was created to try to correct the results of Richard's fraud.

Actually, the idea is to take two groups, one of which is the product of outright fraud, and make one, at which time the need for the third will go away. Your comment is disinformation. >If you want to call for the deletion of a newsgroup let's >talk about REC.aquaria, you know, the one that was created >without ANY regard to the net.guidelines. Your call for deleting the group that fits properly in the hierarchy is disinformation. The group was created in regard for the guidelines - more so than Richard's group, which was created in violation of the guidelines about a name consensus. sci.aquaria is the group that needs to go away. -- Jay Maynard, EMT-P, K5ZC, PP-ASEL | Never ascribe to malice that which can jay@splut.conmicro.com (eieio)| adequately be explained by stupidity. {attctc,bellcore}!texbell!splut!jay +---------------------------------------- Free the DC-10!
