I haven't seen any notes from people complaining that net.news.group wasn't
available at their site; I have seen notes from people who said they
*weren't allowed* to read it on their site. This strikes me as an
unreasonable attitude on the part of their SAs, and one they should try to
change.

I see it this way: if no one who is interested enough in all the changes
taking place on the net these days (where interested means interested enough
to read net.news and/or net.news.group) thought it worthwhile to drum up
support to save net.bizarre, then it must be that all the people who wanted
net.bizarre to stay around don't really care about the net and are willing
to let others decide what the direction of the net should be. Now that
that's been done, they complain that someone else decided for them.
