To whom it may concern.  There is a desire among readers of net.auto to split
or add a new newsgroup to allow separation of technical discussions about
automobiles (ie. how suspensions work, repair, etc.) from the driving or legal
discussions related to, but not exclusively automobiles (ie. 55, good/bad
driving habits, DWI, etc.).  Below are people who expressed their opinion to
me over the last week.  net.driving or net.auto.tech are only two ideas, but
regardless a another newsgroup is needed.
