I propose that we have new newsgroups: > net.tv.amc (for those AMC people) and net.tv.gh (for GH people). > Any thoughts? It would be ridiculous to create such specialized newsgroups. According to the statistics on my machine, there have been a *TOTAL* of 592 articles in this newsgroup in the just over a year that it has existed. That works out to < 1.5 articles per day of which < 50 % were AMC related articles. You can't skip over 1 or 2 articles per day that you don't care to read???
