I have to agree with beth about net.music. I think that the classical
subgroup should be setup and leave net.music alone for the rest
the masses. after classical music discussions, the only thing 
really in net.music is what people call 'rock'. while
thrashy indeed, it is something to read. even when it is people 
putting down other types of music without understanding them
(I hope some skinheads come and stomp william gulley into the ground).

but, net.music is for the discussion of music, and there isn't really 
other catagories but net.music.classical, because net.music.rock
is too vague. people conceptions of rock music vary considerably. 
my opinion of rock music is totally different than somebody elses
views on rock music(listen to the League of Gentlemen's first album
and hear what they say about rock music). so make the classical
faction split off, and leave the rest of the masses where they belong.

i'll be disapointed if i don't get flames.
