This group was once such a vital and interesting place to discuss
roses.
Do you think that it is possible bring this group back to life?
Or do you think that the people who destroyed this group are still
willing to take the time and energy to destroy it again?
If they are still there with the will to ruin, then there is no point,
but if not, and they have moved on with their lives, it would be
great to try to create a new vital rose talk community here.
I would surely love to bring rose discussions back here, seeing that
the USENET format of embedded message trees is highly superior to the
lame and extremely clunky email or web lists such as are those used by
yahoo groups, gardenweb or Rosarian's Corner.
The strength of USENET is that you can see exactly where you are in
any thread and read only what interests you without wading through a
bunch of messages that say stuff like "ditto".
If it is possible, I would like to give it a shot with you folks. And
I can bring others over here as well by pointing to it on the front
page of my website (which gets pretty heavy traffic of people
interested in rose gardening and rose varieties).
