MODERATOR VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT (MVA)
moderated group misc.predictions.registry
This is a formal Moderator Vacancy Announcement (MVA), initiated because
the moderator of above-listed moderated newsgroup has resigned.

CHARTER OF MISC.PREDICTIONS.REGISTRY
The misc.predictions.registry newsgroup is chartered for
the reporting of spontaneous premonitions experienced by
individuals, predictions made more consciously by any of
the various methods of divination, and predictions made
by astrological methods. They come under the umbrella
of the area usually known as the "paranormal".
These should be of the kind that concern things that can
be read about in the newspapers later in order to verify
them; personal premonitions about family, although a
fertile ground and equally valid cannot easily be verified
and are therefore not suitable.
Misc.predictions.registry is not the place to discuss
theories about the paranormal or for advertisements.
Discussion of matters relating to the paranormal in general
should take place in alt.paranormal; those with a sceptical
view of the validity of the premonition experience should
voice their views on sci.skeptic.
Commercial advertisements are not appropriate in this group.
Binaries are not appropriate to this group.
HISTORY OF THE GROUP:
misc.predictions.registry is a moderated newsgroup which passed its vote for
creation by 159:46 as reported in news.announce.newgroups on 26 Dec 1997.
