I've got a name, you know. At least I did when I woke up this morning. No, wait! The teller at the bank asked me to give him my name!

Of course, the above > does *not* apply to Rich Rosen as he can do whatever he wants. [:-)]* Actually, the above does not apply to ANYBODY, as anybody can do whatever they want on this net. (I hate being singled out.) Those who think that the newsgroups have some sort of list of legal subtopics for discussion, or indeed that a newsgroup's name somehow actually relates to the topics discussed within it are in for a real surprise. The contributors wind up determining what the content is. Why do you think net.social is barely above water? Because net.singles evolved into THE place to discuss all sorts of social and (oh my god) sexual oriented things. > ...Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system > of government...
