I for two would not like to see more bullshit news groups.
I'd like to get rid of many.  Before netnews was introduced I
had hoped to see some kind of communication mechanism geared mainly to
people who run UNIX systems.  I wanted to benefit from the community of
knowledge.  I wasn't looking for entertainment or social discussions.

I realize that netnews is appropriate for more than UNIX support.
But I think the purpose should be mainly to inform technically
and help people with specific problems find solutions.
