I've been doing a survey of the readership of netnews groups, and net.sport.hockey has the special distinction of being the group read by the smallest number of people. Go for it! -- Brian Reid decwrl!glacier!reid Stanford reid@SU-Glacier.ARPA

This may have something to do with the fact that the list did not include any Canadian systems (at least that I recognized). Just from Waterloo, we have watmath, watrose, watlion, watdragon, watmum, watdaisy, wateng, watcgl, watopt, watnot, watvlsi, wat... getting these systems in the survey should get this newsgroup out of the bottom 10 list! And at least we were not on the 40 most expensive list... \tom haapanen / watrose!tohaapanen university of waterloo ..!watmath <-- watmum!tohaapanen \ watlion!tohaapanen I am one in ten, a number on a list I am one in ten, even though I don't exist No-body knows me, though I'm always there A statistical reminder of a world that doesn't care (c) UB40, 1981
