Look, the guy tried to find out how to create a newsgroup, he made a mistake, but the group is there now and starting to have some traffic (and not just this thread). I suggest any musicians or people interested in local music in the Baltimore area check the listing out. God knows the baltimore music scene could use a little activism. When I look at the listing of new newsgroups every week, I am sure the majority of them were also created without "official" sanction from the Bandwidth Protectors of the Internet (liberal cry for the 90s - Save the Bandwidth!). The analogy of moving into someone's house is a bit stretched, don't you think? Anyone whose ISP does not offer the group, should contact their provider and ask to have it added. Join us there if this is your area of interest.
