Scott,

It appears to me that your arguement against such a newsgroup has
become a political one. My understanding it that this process is
supposed to revolve around anticipated useage and viability. You may
have a point, (I do not agree), but this arguement does not belong
here.




Of course it belongs here. It's an RFD, you opened discussion, and I'm
discussing it. I don't I've given my reason why I think the proposed group
belongs in rec.sports and not rec.outdoors. There's a decision-making
process, and if the powers that be don't believe my arguments are relevant,
they will ignore them. I'd propose opening it up to the rest of the
rec.outdoors hierarchy.

Keep in mind that I fish and enjoy tournaments, but not bass tournaments.
I don't consider any of my tournament experiences to be among the most
conservation oriented of my pasttimes, and I think that there should be a
larger conservation component for memebers of the rec.outdoors hierarchy.
I have zero problems with rec.sports.anything in this case.
