Several subscribers have already expressed enthusiastic support. Therefore, I propose creating a new newsgroup, rec.pets.cats. This newsgroup would be unmoderated. Its purpose would be to discuss all issues pertaining to, and to trade anecdotes about, domestic cats (i.e. members of the genus Felis catus). Articles pertaining to other types of cats would remain in rec.pets. The discussion period will end on Wednesday, May 1, 1991. If it is determined that a vote should take place, I volunteer to be the vote-taker. --Bis bis@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu From bis@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu Mon Sep 11 16:19:08 1995 Xref: rpi news.announce.newgroups:1196 news.groups:26808 rec.pets:17651 Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,rec.pets Path: rpi!bounce-back From: bis@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu (Bis) Subject: CFV: rec.pets.cats Followup-To: poster Sender: tale@cs.rpi.edu Nntp-Posting-Host: cs.rpi.edu Organization: Brandeis University Date: 10 Jun 91 03:42:10 GMT Approved: tale@rpi.edu Lines: 26 Status: RO X-Status: I posted this a few weeks ago.
