Can we keep this tedious "definition of science" crap out of 
Misc.Headlines?  Here I only want to see hard-hitting, breathless
reports of fast-breaking news stories, preferably written
in short, choppy sentences. I want to read turgid prose, meaty
prose, prose with hair on it. I want to read what happens when it
happens as it happens, and I want to read it in 3-line paragraphs.

Misc.Headlines: USENET's only potentially Pulitzer-Prize-winning newsgroup.
