- That's part of it. The new group "rec.autos.antique" was also
- created because many sites apparently do NOT accept or otherwise
- receive "alt" groups. So, there was a formal vote which actually
- started on the alt.autos.antique group and it overwhelmongly was
- in favor of changing the newsgroup over to rec.autos.antique.
