It sounds like a good idea, but without a moderator it might become another flame-pit for those ultra-moralistic/narrow-minded people who feel the need to preach fire-and-brimstone at everybody. Isuggest that you,if you want this new net,also propose that it have a moderator to screen out any unsuitable material. You also need a moderator to keep the contents of posted news relatively tasteful and/or clean in terms of language. One need not use the F**k word in the discussion of this topic, so such entries should be censored. Maybe it would stay unsullied as mod.love_sex... Good Luck! Anthony J.

Those folks have their own groups to guilt-trip each other in. eg net.{religion,origins,flame,politics,nazis:-)}. Rather than a moderator for net.love_sex (foo on uppercase!), how about just everybody FLAME THE BEJEEZUS out of this class of offender! At last a guilt-free occaision to blast 'em to the other side of Pluto! We're talking here about the sort of thing that is done now (inappropriately) to freshmen who post "Apt. Wanted in E Outhouse, NJ" to net.general. "How would you like to spend eternity doing pushups on a six-foot pile of broken glass?" -- Dr Memory ...{decvax,ucbvax,ihnp4}!decwrl!qubix!jdb
