I'll bet that all the folks out there who post things to the net have read netnews at least once before they first put up a message of their own. Well, why can't we tell them what a group is for before they put in that exploratory first message: ----------------------------------- Newsgroup net.physics (Physical laws, properties, etc.) ----------------------------------- After all, Adam goes to all the trouble to put together a newsgroup list anyway... I think it would help clean up the net a little... Dave Anderson houxm!homxa!dman
