Painful though it be, I have to disagree with you about the choice of the word "appropriately" insofar as most of the political discussion currently on pnw.general is not apropos of the Pacific Northwest, but instead has a national focus, or so it seemed to me this morning. Therefore, I would say that "most of the [political] discussions in pnw.general would be more appropriately held" in talk.politics or soc.culture.usa. I have nothing per se against political discussions, and a pnw.politics group would be welcomed by me (for what that's worth), but if one is going to talk politics in a pnw group it would be not inappropriate to give such politics a PNW spin. -- Frank Richard Aloysius Jude Maloney "Well, I'm a little muddled." -- Glinda
