[news.groups] bird group? no way, jose...

>>Should it be rec.pets.birds, or should it be rec.birds.aviculture? 

The answer, after about a week, is clearly neither. Less than ten folks have
bothered to say anything about the group creation and the overriding feeling
is one of apathy.

So consider this the end of the pre-discussion phase. And, next time the
"lets split the group" discussion starts, ignore it, since it's obvious
nobody really wants to.

Rumour has it that Larry Wall, author of RN, is a finalist in the race for
the Nobel Peace Prize for his invention of the kill file.

	How nice of you to speak for everyone.  I, for one, would
	like to see rec.pets broken down to rec.pets.{animal} and
	can't find anyone who can provide a solid answer as to 
	why that is not a good idea.

I never saw a real discussion proposed on this.
The original proposal was a bit vague as to which group to respond to.
I responded in this group..and admittedly..I saw no others..but...
I did see other responses in other groups. Let's make a real effort to bring
this up officially.
