Name: misc.support.stop-smoking
Status: unmoderated
Charter:(below)

     This is the 3rd Call For Votes
     for misc.support.stop-smoking.

     The voting period began August 12, 1992 and
     will continue through midnight September 11th.

     Please do not post any votes past that date.

The Votes will be collected at two
      addresses:

      smokeyes@edsi.plexus.com  ... to vote YES

      smokeno@edsi.plexus.com  ... to vote NO

Include a line in the body of your text which says:

     "I vote yes on misc.support.stop-smoking"
                        or
     "I vote no on misc.support.stop-smoking"

Since the discussion period is past, your message
should not contain phrases such as:

     "I would vote yes if..."

A vote will be invalidated in
      this instance.

The Call For Votes will continue for 31 days
and will be reposted 1 more time
during the voting period.

     The misc. hierarchy was selected to allow a maximum
         number of readers but not get confused with the
         political debates in the talk.* hierarchy.

     The .support element indicates the ability to
         establish other support groups.

     .stop-smoking shows the specific intent of the
          group.

The finalized version of the Charter
which has incorporated name changes
to reflect the intent of the group follows:

========================================================

THE CHARTER

     Misc.support.stop-smoking would be an unmoderated
forum to exchange information on the long term effects
of quitting the smoking habit.  These questions regard
physical changes such as weight gain (does it ever
normalize?) and how can life crises start up the smoking
addiction after a period of calm and abstinence?

     The purpose of this forum is to show that smoking
is a true addiction and requires long term support.
This support would be found through contacts with those
who are on a similar timeline to the individual reading
the forum: A Smokers Anonymous.

     So, misc.support.stop-smoking would be available on
an as-needed basis for any and all questions regarding
techniques for quitting and family problems which arise
from a change in behavior.

     Most importantly, the group would be available during
that period when the individual thinks that she or he is
"out of the woods" but discovers that nothing could be
further from the truth.
========================================================

Thanks to all who have participated in the discussion
and encouraged me to complete the voting procedure.

Tell your friends and anyone else who should be
interested.
======================================================

Here is the Vote Acknowledgement received
as of Mon Aug 31 1992
