[news.misc] What Nongroups Do People Mention?

kibo@pawl.rpi.edu (James 'Kibo' Parry) (05/15/89)

[]
	Here's a little bit of trivia... I took approximately one meg of
alt.flame postings and searched through them for names of newsgroups
that don't "really" exist (made-up ones, misspelled ones, etc.)
	Now just think... if it was easier to create new groups, we
might actualyl have most of these (gack) :-)

   I believe soc.motos did in fact exist at one time.  Its removal is
clearly the work of those bigoted heterophobes on the net.

>soc.snuggles

   I like that idea!  I could do with a snuggle or two now and then.
