Our problem is that K*nt P. Dolan seems to have arbitrarily decided that t.b is the most relevant place for his presidential campaign, much to the dismay of many t.b readers. One could of course argue that this is suitable revenge being brought down on the t.b population for the abuse of a large fraction of the other 400-or-so worldwide newsgroups caused by that population due to inappropriate crossposting. But personally, I don't give a hoot whether alt.birthright comes into existence or not. It looks like we're going to get a dandy little newgroup/rmgroup ctrl msg war; on one of the systems I administer, loquat.cis.ohio-state.edu, alt.birthright came into existence and then had its removal requested within the span of 10 minutes. --Karl
