Kent,
The problem is that it's a bitch and a half trying to get a
newsgroup up and running nowadays. We've found that with the current
crop of users if they're not already on usenet, they're unlikely to
move there. Sad, but true.
Unless there's a strong proponant team and a bunch of people willing
to bug their sites to put the group on their server, the group fails.
