- Translation: I'm the only one I know that likes the show. Let's make a
- newsgroup so I can find others who do.

- Excuse me, but shouldn't things get newsgroups that have a lot of interest,
- not things that interest is so sparse that it'd take a worldwide group to
- find other people who share that interest? And if we start newgrouping
- things like this, we'd open the door for alt.tv.brady-bunch, alt.tv.gilligan,
- and basically any show that anyone can remember. It makes sense to have
- groups for shows that have huge viewerships, like trek or twin-peaks (when
- it was on, at least.) Chips doesn't have this.
-
- Save the altnet!
