In light of recent events on a.a-a, I would like to direct everyones attention to the following... [http://www.faqs.org/usenet/alt/naming.html] How to Name a Newsgroup A brief explanation of what newsgroup names mean Newsgroup names describe their groups-- they don't define them. The purpose of a newsgroup name is to group related topics; it should never be interpreted as meaning that the discussion is restricted to the subject indicated by the name, but rather only that the discussion is in some way related to that subject. It is quite common to put a group related to someone who works both in TV and in radio (or in TV and in movies), for example, in alt.tv.*. This doesn't mean that discussions of their radio (or movie) work are off-topic in that newsgroup; it simply communicates to those who aren't familiar with the person in question that he or she is associated with television. -r- -- enq...@npvq.bet RaD Man % ACiD Productions Founder % Artpacks Archive Founder http://www.acid.org - Members pages, contact information, releases & more. http://artpacks.acid.org - Over 1.2gigs of ANSI, ASCII, RIP and hirez art.
