TALK: ...about a job well done

Congratulations to Bob Allison for plugging away for a worthwhile and
necessary group.

We are all going to benefit from his dedication and very hard work.

Three cheers, I say!  Any backers?  Newbies who have already begun to enjoy?

I am that very newbie of whom you speak, Doris.  Very impressed with the
Scarecrow-guy.  I thought, when the rec.arts.ascii group was being
debated, that his concept of what a moderator should be very much
matched my own [aaaargghh... disclaimer:  the Crow is a 'puter wizard,
whereas I had to have mine-- which I got ten months ago, hadn't even
been in the same room with one before that-- completely set up for my
completely ignorant self.]

But it already seems clear to me that there will have to be *some*
moderation, by and large, in the newsgroups, to deal with the infamous
"Make Money Fast", those creepy green card lawyers, etc.  I mean, there
are those whose main attraction to the Internet is the idea of abusing
it.

I for one have been looking for this group for about a year now!  Since we
do not get any alt. groups at this site, it is really hard to find a group
just for what I'm looking for.  Sorry I missed the CFV!
P.S. my account IME...@TREX.OSCS.MONTANA.EDU is no longer around, so this
will be my posting address from now on =]  I still get e-mail at:
