I like old Itchy and Scratchy as much as the next guy, but why do they have
2 news groups? Amazing!

No, no, no... Check out the "Newsgroups" field. There is now an
"alt.fan.itch-n-scratchy" and an "alt.tv.simpsons.itchy-scratchy".
Both these groups started this week.

Brian, my alt.fan.itchy-n-scratchy newsgroup was deleted from
my newsrc because my sys. admin. said it was a 'bogus' newsgroup.
