I didn't even think of trying that.
But it really doesn't make sense.' This' group was yanked because it
ended up on 'the list' (and the name 'teenboy' didn't help either)
I'm willing to try for another, but we really should find out why pega
isn't on the other server. If they're dropping groups left and right,
then I really don't need EN anymore. (I've only kept them because of
the Web Interface)
