Every so often, someone says "Look, nothing will get settled here, the points you're talking about are moot anyway, why don't you just cut it out?" These people have a point, but neglect the fact that net.misc occassionally contains non-moot points. To handle this discrepancy, I suggest the formation of net.moot. This could be overseen by keyword-finding programs at each site that reroute articles intended for net.misc. I suggest the following list for inclusion in the keyword file: determinism free will abortion faster-than-light creationism smoking wombats truth right[s] God flame[s] atrocity I would like to see other people's suggestions for inclusion. Of course, constant updating of the list would be neccessary; I suggest the addition of an "m" (mootify) command to the various readnews programs, and establishment of critical mootification levels neccessary before rerouting a topic.
