- Not under that name, there isn't. You don't create newsgroups just by
- putting a dot everywhere a space appears in the subject you want to talk
- about. Newsgroup names are hierarchical, which means that
- alt.saturday.night.live might find itself sharing the Net with
- alt.saturday.afternoon.football and alt.saturday.night.fever.
-
- Try alt.tv.snl instead.
