    What I REALLY wonder is how long it will  be  before  someone
    decides  to  try  this  with  some  other  group.  I'm sure a
    compilation of, say, soc.singles postings would do quite well
    as  a  mass-market paperback; it might take a bit of creative
    editing, but I'm sure you can see the  possibilities...  Just
    a  small  matter  of  talking to my friends in the publishing
    business.

You might talk to Brian Reid about  alt.gourmand.  A  while  back
some  one  was  going to publish the USENET cookbook.  So, he now
coypyrights each posting.  He  has  a  thing  called  the  USENET
Community  Trust.  I  am sure he'll give more details if he feels
like it and sees my post.
