I do not think it would be practical to try and convert net.all
to other categories, for the mere reason that Mark states that
it would be a tremendous upheaval.  We no longer have the coordination
and cooperation among the net sites that we once had.  Sort of
like the days without communication.  Remember when Andrew Jackson
(was it he?) continued to attack the British for two weeks after
peace was declared because he never heard about it?  That's the
kind of situation that we have now.
