There has been demand for a forum for unofficial discussions, humorous
articles, flames, tongue-in-cheek articles, satire, art and so on.

Ideas for names:

alt.uu.cafeteria
alt.uu.pub
alt.uu.cafe
alt.uu.gossip
alt.uu.chat
alt.uu.freeform

Oh by all means, let's have them all.

What we really need is enough newsgroups for one group/posting, so we can
tell by the group name if the posting is of interest.

Thats ok.  This is the same guy that send out four newgroups today for:

	alt.consciousness
	alt.society.revolution
	alt.society.civil-disob
	alt.culture.usenet

I guess he's in a race to see who can create the most newsgroups...
