As a lurker and very occasional poster over the last 3 years, just a genuine
thank you for getting it all rolling. Also to all the regulars who have
shared their knowledge (and opinions!), thank you - I've learned lots!

Not quite a birthday, but today marks the 10th anniversary of
this newsgroup's conception when I submitted a "request for
discussion" and the proposed newsgroup charter to usenet
uk-hierarchy admin. This was the culmination of several weeks
of toying with the idea, discovering how it was done, talking
to the people who had set up other newsgroups, and so on.
Had I known how much aggro that creation process would
bring, I would never have started!
