I agree that two groups are not warranted at the present time, and that "ne.personals.ads" is not a good choice. Net tradition would favor the "ne.singles" name (or maybe "ne.motos"? :) > Since the have been no objections to the idea of the group I >will set it up as soon as an agreement on the name is reached. > >->Spike By the way, obviously (and thankfully) distribution fields do not limit the audience that much, but it would be nice if posts to ne.singles (or whatever it is called) were from people who actually spend time in New England. If someone creates the new group, could they please let me know (by a post to ne.general or via email?) Jim Kowalczyk James_J_Kowalczyk@cup.portal.com Andover, MA
