I had a feeling something like that would happen, after I saw this
particular post last night:

I guess it's a mixed blessing that accessing Usenet via the WWW
doesn't
provide the ability to killfile. It means that all posts, threads, or
whatever are available, and it's for the user to decide which things
to
read and which to avoid.

I happened to read that particular item last night and thought, "Oh,
great. Now the cooking people are going to wonder what's going on."

I guess the cooking group regulars will be doing some plonking before
long.

What's with these people?! Do they even *like* cats? I'm getting the
feeling they care more about flaming and being disruptive than they do
anything else.

Now, now, Jill, as you know we have been talking about our
own beloved kitties for months in these groups. Among the other
things you need to learn is the fact that hyperbole and wild claims
that are completely unfounded in reality do nothing to advance
your credibility.

We long for harmony and happiness between the groups, and we
know how much you love good cat stories there in anecdotes, so
out of the pure love and goodness of our hearts we are going to
do our best to provide more Wonderful Cat Stories just to reward
you all for your kind natures and broad-minded intelligence.

By the same token, when you discuss cooking, why not bring
in the cooking groups? The more the merrier, and all on-topic.
Do you see some down side in this? I thought the cooking
folks would have great insights into pressure cooking and indeed
they did. I enjoyed their input. Didn't you?

I thought you were in her kf list?

Me too. I don't know what her problem is. You would think she
would welcome all the good cooking posts AND cat anecdotes
she can get. I have been reading rec.food.cooking for years.

If they wanted to post the same question to rfc, they would do so in a
separate post. If people wanted ONE big news group... then why are
there so many separate ones? We are not all one big happy family. We
are a big contentious family and that's why there is more than one
newsgroup for every subject.

If you want to post and participate here, please stay... but don't
cross post. I'm not interested in their replies and they aren't
interested in mine.
