As explained in the first message in that group, I have created a net-wide version of fa.risks (it has been in local distribution at sites topologically close to Stanford/SRI for several weeks). This material is timely, and going through the usual "new group" creation approval process will rob USENET readers of the opportunity to read the high-quality messages in the early weeks of the group. Howabout a debate between Joseph Weizenbaum and John McCarthy about StarWars? Howabout discussions by informed sources about the weather service computer failure leading to a lawsuit where the weather service was sued for millions and lost? Watch fa.risks. You should make an entry in your moderators file that this is a moderated group, and that its moderator is risks@sri-csl.ARPA. -- Brian Reid decwrl!glacier!reid Stanford reid@SU-Glacier.ARPA
