I tend to agree with Eldon's proposal. I certainly feel some
discussion is needed. For instance, should we announce over USENET
that this mailling list exists (groups such as soc.religion.*,
philosophical, scientific groups)? This may generate considerable
interest but we need a means to handle the new load as well as the
introductory group that Eldon mentioned.
