Can we please discuss relevant topics such as running networks? (for instance NOT @#$@#$ing FACEBOOK!)
This list over the last year has just gone soo far downhill that I am most likely going to unsubscribe from it as I 
don't get any technical benefit from the garbage that is discussed on this list 99.999999999999999% of the time.

I've always looked at the nanog list representing issues up to layer 4 of the OSI model; mostly layer 3/4. Maybe a new mailing list could be made called the North American Network Applications Group (nanag)...there might be a pun there :).
