- I guess it also depends on what you are used to reading. Lots of
- newsgroups have large sections that are totally irrelevant to what
- you are interested in, even this place has some conversations that
- I don't read. None so far that I have been offended by, but if you
- know absolutely *nothing* about Cyberpunk, it's not interesting to
- read, as no doubt several of us bored soem to tears with astronomy
- discussions... So far I've never killed people but then I am getting
- close to it on some groups... Groups like sci.astro would be
- unreadable without K...
