I recommend that before trying to create a new group, that you follow the procedure laid out in net.announce.newusers: submit articles about letterman to net.tv and if the volume of postings increases to the point that it begins to annoy everyone in the group, and this remains true for several months, then you can begin the official proposal and voting. If you don't want to annoy Europe and Australia with Lettermania, then kindly set the Distribution: line in your header to Distribution: na when submitting your letterman articles. Also, be advised that if you get a small but vocal "hardcore" group that you might want to set up a letterman "viewer-mailing-list" to service their needs. Hutch

while it's true that net.tv exists for the purpose of discussing
various tv shows, please keep in mind that there is a startrek and
dr.who group... if nothing really results from our endeavor (...and
i think we all know how painful that can be!...), the true "Lettermaniacs"
(thank you for the term--never heard that one before) will probably
settle for a mail-group, or simply keep all dave references to net.tv,
as per your suggestion... 'til then--can you blame a guy for trying?...
("He's one of those corporate weasels, isn't he...?")

I, for one, would support the idea of a net.tv.dave group. But, hey - I'm a schmuck! - mike krantz
