| RATIONALE:
Right now, there are a significant number of posts on sci.med.nutrition
that are either sales pitches for nutritional products or cross-posted
arguments over the ethics of eating meat. The ethical considerations
for eating meat are on topic themes for talk.politics.animals and
rec.food.veg - they are not on topic for sci.med.nutrition. Sales pitches
are not welcome in sci groups. The on topic discussions have become
the minority in the last year, and as a result many regular contributors
have left the newsgroup. |
| Im writing to invite everyone at alt.support.arthritis to take a free
subscription to Nutrition News Focus. I hope I am not offending
anyone by posting to an alternative health discussion group, and will
explain my rationale for posting here at the bottom of my note. In
any case I think youll find our information quite relevant to the
effort to cope with disease. |

| From the charter we see first of all, that sci.med.nutrition is a
SCIENCE newsgroup, NOT a playground for immature posting! The sci.
notation states explicitly that this is a SCIENCE newsgroup. While
anyone can pose a question, those who reply to questions should do so
ONLY in the manner normally used in a SCIENCE newsgroup. |
