Why don't we just gateway u-w to unix.programmer?

  If you open enough oysters you can find pearls, too.

  The group which used to be mainly good reading with a flavoring of
baby talk is now a treasure hunt through many groups filled with
appropriate stuff, with just enough wizard stuff to give it flavor.

  The group seems dead, I'm going to have to join the inet list when I
dig out the address. No one group seems to have what the old wizards
did, so whatever the intent the group has been effectively killed.

  Pity that arcana was not socially acceptable as a name.

    VMS is a text-only adventure game. If you win you can use unix.
