I propose some useful subgroups of net.phlegm:

 o  net.phlegm.spelling  
	- a nice newsgroup where those who are concerned about how the quality
	of language in newsgroups is always deteriorating--favorite examples
	from any newsgroup could be posted and shredded.  This is a real
	necessity, for those of us who are annoyed at an article, but who
	really can't come up with anything intelligent to say. Since this
	newsgroup would be of limited interest, not everyone would subscribe
	to it, so we would be safe from the eyes of those who can't spell and 
	think our criticisms trivial: we could vent our feeble frustrations in
	private, sort of. 
	Perhaps this could be expanded into including examples grammar and
	latin problems.
	Note that I am not proposing that discussions about well grammar or
	latin or spelling be moved into this subgroup: those can either go
	in net.phlegm, or maybe net.phlegm.spelling.d .

  o  net.phlegm.inappropriate  or  net.phlegm.inapt
	- an appropriate place to post favorite inappropriately posted 
	articles, and then to kill them.  The shorter version of the name will
	appeal to those who will not subscribe to net.phlegm.spelling, and to
	those with tired typers.

I feel these topics are certinly of suffishent innerast, since were allways
flaming about people who can't spell alot, and how we shouldn't be discussing
x in net.y .

	Yours trully,
	Lisa S. Chabot
