After reading about 40 messages with *none* of them having general
interest, I've decided to unsubscribe to net.general.  I just don't
have the time to waste on it, and there doesn't seem to be any way
to discourage irresponsible postings to it.  Part of the problem is
due to lack of interest by site administrators, who don't seem to
care whether those with access to the net are instructed in its use.
(Our own administrator came up with his own solution to net pollution:
he unsubscribed months ago.  I might have been the only one left here
at Rand reading net.general...  Well, no more.)
