- There was some discussion of creating an alt.quotations in here. May I
- suggest alt.buttons as an alternative? This would include buttons,
- bumperstickers, and .sigs, which seem to be the only good places to
- put quotes these days. Most of the quotes in an earlier post also
- appear in at least two of the three button catalogues I own. These
- things appear everywhere from SF cons to used bookstores.
- I'd been considering the creation of an alt.buttons even before I
- saw michael's post for alt.quotations. Either that or alt.bumperstickers,
- but alt.buttons is shorter that either of the other two, and thus
- easier for those of us who have to or prefer to type in newsgroup names
- every time we read them...
