     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.
