I suspect that Nabisco will be a wee bit suspicious if they suddenly
see lots of people asking for some bizarre product, in "great" numbers,
when they probably only got trickles of requests in the past.  Such
patterns almost always indicate an "organized" pressure group (the
same technique is used by some groups to try "kill" certain TV shows)
and are generally not given much credibility.

According to some very preliminary data that I have taken using sampling
techniques that are not perfect (albeit whose flaws are very well
understood), I currently estimate that there are between 1500 and 6000
readers of net.cooks worldwide. I am hoping to get better data as we refine
the sampling technique and also as we encourage more sites to participate in
it. I would guess that there are even fewer readers of net.general, except
perhaps inside AT&T where it is used extensively for selling dinette sets in
central New Jersey.
