[net.news.group] Let's *keep* net.bizarre

mouse@mcgill-vision.UUCP (der Mouse) (09/03/85)

A view from the other side (the ones who  want to keep it).  It's one of
the few newsgroups I haven't unsubscribed to.

Kill net.jokes before net.bizarre!

All  my   opinion   of  course.    Not  necessarily  my  employer's,  my
colleague's, my Walkman's, my terminal's, or my Rubik's Cube's.

No!  Then the semi-annual Light Bulb Joke Disease will have nowhere to go
but net.bizarre!  Even though much of net.bizarre is junk (I haven't noticed
significantly higher S/N ratios in most other groups, though), at least the
posters don't feel obligated to post the joke they just heard from a cute
4-year-old...
