And defended himself by saying that there wasn't a better group to use. Sigh. Peter, when you're done with your little poll, why don't you just run a vote for rec.aquaria? (What happened to that other vote, anyway?) Don't bother with a new discussion period. Don't bother with STV. Don't bother with approval voting. Don't bother with alternate names at all. The charter of rec.aquaria will be ``to discuss recreational aspects of aquaria'' or something similar. It will pass with flying colors, and everyone will be happy. Science and hobby will have separate groups. The poor sci.aquaria distribution will improve, because sysadmins will see that the recreational discussions have somewhere to disappear to. And news.groups will drop back down to ten or twenty articles a day. (Okay, so I'm being an optimist. It's worth a try.) ---Dan
