New Special Interest Gay Newsgroups
-----------------------------------
In keeping with the first day of April, which doesn't come until next
year; an entirely new series of newsgroups are being added to USENET to
replace the once devine but now dreary net.motss newsgroup. Due to a huge
number of requests from subscribers for special interest sub-groups, the
new net.newsgroups will be ready on Oscar Wilde day. The once popular
net.motss group met it's demise after a lengthy 18 month discussion on
the subjects;
* Should quiche be served to straight dinner guests (12,500 responses)
* Merits of starting Tea dance at 8am instead of (8735 responses)
4pm
* Whether to tell God that we're gay (15,675 responses)
* 3 Mile Island as a gay resort, would you go? (27,900 responses)
* Breakup of lover relationships caused by a new (13,667 responses)
virus.
* Discussions on Dynasty, Dallas and Falconcrest (197,890 responses)
Due to the enormous volume of traffic on the network, net.motss blew
up and Mike Simpson developed arthritus in his fringers from trying to
type up summaries. his last sign off was "Please shoot me, I can't help
you any more" Here is the list of new newsgroups which will replace net.
