I think that there *IS* such a group:  comp.cog-eng!  I have been following 
this list for about two years, and it seems to have had a wide range material
on HCI, user interfaces, etc.  What has been wrong, or specialized, about
comp.cog-eng?  Or does the name put off some potential subscribers/posters
for reasons that I would not be aware of?  Or did the original 'charter'
when the group was established specifiy that only a certain subset of HCI
topics should be discussed?  Perhaps someone still has a copy of the original
call for votes that created this group.
