It may not be a heavily trafficked group, but it has an advocacy on our machine and in our region (NC Triangle area -- Duke, Chapel Hill, Raleigh) where there are a number of hospitals, medical centers, biology depts, etc. Possibilities for serious discussion are abundant, not to mention the fact that it provides a separate forum for the creationist debate. I'm not a biologist, but I hope something can come of this group, and carping about its volume can only discourage its use.
