Wrong!  I have been ignoring the subject because there is already
enough useless stuff in this group.  I am not a don't care.  If
you really can't handle looking at car ads then maybe we need
a comp.forsale group.

If I am looking for something to buy, I read misc.forsale.
If I want some technical information, I read comp groups.

As per your suggestion, put PC in the heading in the forsale
group and you can skip the ones that say Toyota.
