What's of general interest? Is anything of general interest? Some very interesting (in my opinion) discussions have occurred with people who are not Kate Bush fans and that were inititiated by postings from me that might not be considered of "general interest". For example, a posting of some of my interpretations of some of Kate Bush's lyrics sparked a very interesting conversation with J. Eric Roskos (among others), and he is not (was not?) a Kate Bush fan, and probably wouldn't have subscribed to a Kate Bush mailing list. I wouldn't object as much to a separate newsgroup (net.music.kate? net.music.fans?) because then at least people who wouldn't bother to subscribe to a mailing list might participate.
