You all took the micky when I said that I still used newsgroups (well Halifax did). Someone in the alt.uk.local.north-wales group posted a message advertising his team.

Refering to Climate prediction...
"I am running one of the top teams in the whole project at the moment.
It is called WALES and is for anyone who lives in Wales, likes Wales, or
maybe just has heard of Wales :-) We have just over a hundred members
already.

We are beating the English at the moment into third place and they have
lots more members !!!"

So, at the risk of getting flamed, perhaps Prime Minister Master or one of his deputies could do the same? I ain't voluneering BTW!

Theyare using those news Groups because none of them teams have a proper forum

I wonder if anyone would join if you sent out a mail like that, think I would prob just bin the message if Igot it :?:

I should be going round tonight to set him up. If not the next few days. I'll put a shout on new members when I've finished :)
