Attempts to draw the readership of this group to better protected forums
has failed miserably, both inside altnet and out of it. Swimming through
the sewer of news.groups for another doomed attempt woud be futile and
frustrating.
Better to formally split it and replace the root it by a moderated misc group.

Compare and contrast sci.physics.fusion and the various thriving small-volume
obscure computer groups in alt.sys.*. A group is "serious" or not based on its
topic, ragerdless of where in the hierarchy it is placed.
Cc: Dwight Dutton. Apologies, but i moved my followup to more appropriate
groups, and I'm not sure you read them.
