:How many are enough?  I'd say follow the usual USENET guidelines, that is,
:100 more "Yes" votes than "No" votes for it to pass.

<laughs>  You REALLY don't want another newsgroup, do you?

What I wonder is what good it will do.  Are employers not posting job
opportunities locally because they don't see a newsgroup spelled out
in black and white just for that purpose?  If that's the case, then
mi.jobs seems like a reasonable idea.  

Otherwise, we have enough distinct newsgroups for the traffic we
generate.  Now if someone were kind and resourceful enough to gateway
the more-active Fido regional newsgroups into Usenet...
