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.
