It would actually make more sense to move unix under comp.os rather
than have a hierarchy of its own. I realize this is for hysterical
reasons (oops, historical reasons, freudian slip no doubt), but logic
would indicate that this is a reasonable thing to do.
Moving any os groups not based on AT&T code into comp.unix is probably
a bad idea.

It never ceases to amaze me that otherwise rational people, able to
understand calculus, compound interest, and the income tax form, can
continue to believe that poker is a game of chance.
