RE: [kent-grads] Any university's collegiate system fading?

["James Hollands" <james.hollands@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We would then have the same problem that we used to have at UKC when we had
ukc.misc, and ukc.misc.blah, were blah is the name of a specialist
newsgroup.

Invariabily when this sort of chatter goes on things will divert onto
tangents (as ukc.misc readers will be all too aware ;)

Considering we have only had circa 100 emails to this mailing list all year,
of which about 95% have occurred in the last month, I think having 2 lists -
or any other medium, would be like trying to fix a problem that simply isn't
there.

Just my 2pence worth :)

Oh and by the way, Merry Christmas everyone :)
