As far as I can tell, someone created net.bizarre, unauthorized and
it now has been officially 'removed'.

Well, we haven't removed it yet and I've gotten some pretty funny
stuff on it (maybe its my warped sense of humor but the article
about the threat to charge with 'offensive littering' the person
who left two human heads in a parking lot caught my funny bone.)

If it would be designated as kind of a place to dump those ever-occuring
bizarre news stories, true-life facts, I'd vote to keep it, truth
is always stranger than fiction, this might be a bit of net serendipity.
Any fan of those little fillers in the New Yorker should understand.

I know net.jokes and all that, but who can wade thru that? I don't
even subscribe anymore. Maybe it should be net.ripleys.
