Re: Big Apple Users Group 8.23.1999: Pizza SIG



Rubywand@swbell.net posted the following thread:
"Disagree. While a posting to Csa2-usergroups is a good idea, a posting to
Csa2 main is perfectly in order. The plain truth is that many Apple II users
read only this newsgroup on any kind of regular basis.

If you want to 'get the word out' about some event or want the best shot
at getting an answer to an Apple II question, including comp.sys.apple2 in your
posting list makes good sense and should be encouraged."

And, I reply:  I agree with your thoughts on such.  There's no reason to tell
somebody they should keep a usergroup post announcement in a specific
Apple II usergroup newsgroup only.  There are many subscribers to Usenet that
only read the comp.sys.apple.2 newsgroup.  Many may not read the information or
be made aware of it, if it's confined to an Apple II newsgroup they are not
aware of or subscribed to. 

Cheers,
Tom
