Howdy, How's the weather in Balt'more? I'm in Kansas City and I haven't a clue as to where my local site is. But what the hey.... I'd like to propose a new alt.culture newsgroup. It's name is: alt.culture.outerspace and it is for news and discussions about space culture. There have been a lot of complaints about off-topic space stuff on an astronomy newsgroup. Although there are NGs for UFOs and aliens and some space tv-shows and astrology and exploring outer space, there are none for discussing the impact that ideas about outer space have had on local and global cultures. The above mentioned topics, and others, communicate ideas which have influenced and are influencing American culture. Ideally alt.culture.outerspace will become a place where news of new space-related trends can be posted; the potential impact of those trends on Earth/American culture can be discussed; reviews and/or opinions of space-related products and/or events can be posted; and folks who have space-related stuff can post notices about it. Alt.culture.outerspace will be unmoderated, for the foreseeable future, but I will regularly post a FAQ. Well? Is there any interest in alt.culture.outerspace as a newsgroup? Hammond
