This group is much much too small to split. IMHO most of the discussions are
of interst to most of the group. Spliting the group would IMHO result in
many post being cross posted and increasing the precived traffic insted of
decreasing it. If you are having difficulty with the number of post I 
would suggust that you get a threaded news reader such as strn I thing
you will find that the time you spend reading stuff you arn't interested
in will go way down.

IMHO
