   There are 6 RD newsgroups already. Granted, they are all alt groups.   
   But ATRD is the only one that anybody actually posts to.  You could try   
   starting a google group maybe.  Not that many people these days, in my   
   experience, know about usenet.  But I agree with Col, I think it would   
   just split an already small group.  How about an RD google group that   
   just had one post, which gave instructions on how to subscribe to ATRD?   
     That may pull a few (rotten teeth out of a dead horses head (-: ) Only   
   joking.
