This newsgroup will hopefully be a forum for discussing some of the rich aspects of the Iranian culture, histroy and heritage. Considering that the Iranaian history goes back to over 2000 years ago, there would be plenty of subjects for interesting discussions. Vahid Hesany

I completely support the idea of creating SOC.CULTURE.IRANIAN. I think this newsgroup can provide a great forum for discussion of the rich history of persia, and the current political and economical news in Iran as it relates to the rest of the world. ----------------- Dr. Ali A.
