Suggestion 2:  move "net.astro" to "net.sci.astro"
	Has net.astro.expert died?

Suggestion 4:  move "net.space" to "net.sci.space"
	net.eng.space would be better.  The space program is a
technological engineering effort more than a scientific one, and
net.sci.astro covers the sience side.  The root group net.eng would also
give non-software engineers a home on the net.

Suggestion 6:  drop "net.columbia" in favor of "net.space" (see #4)
	Yuk, lots of people will hate this.  The shuttle is a distinct
part of the space program.  It also generates sufficient unique
traffic that it continues to deserve its own group.
	How about net.eng.columbia, so it's grouped with net.eng.space?
