I don't know about Sheila, but I think the point of a csu social newsgroup
is not just to meet people, but to meet local people.  Talking to someone
from another part of the world is not the same thing as talking to someone
who goes to the same school, lives in the same city (of course there's also
the risk of meeting psychos :)).  Anyway, I think it'd be nice to have a
social group, not just for finding a someone to date, but just to meet friends.
I'm fairly shy, so it's a lot easier for me to meet friends over the net than
in person at school.  Just my opinion :)
