How about starting with sci.chem (analogous to sci.bio and sci.physics)?  If you
really get overwhelmed, you can branch out into sci.chem.organic etc., but there
doesn't seem to be any need to start out with four groups.

Also, where would biochemistry and biophysical chemistry fit in?  I suppose they
could be cross-posted to sci.bio and sci.chem (and bionet.general perhaps).

[Further discussion of this should probably take place on news.groups, and
follow-ups have been directed there.]
