Default funny, that



Funny, that. We have groups for astronomy and agronomy, and we have
groups for science and finance and politics and economy and society,
and thousands of groups for sex and entertainment and all such stuff
of intense human interest.

But, correct me if I'm wrong, we don't seem to have a single group for
cosmology, which, after all, is what it is all about - and what is all
about us.

Maybe that says more about human thinking than humans would care to
know.

I always thought that cosmology was just a synonym for astronomy...

According to Dictionary.com:

1)The study of the physical universe considered as a totality of phenomena
in time and space.

a)The astrophysical study of the history, structure, and constituent
dynamics of the universe.

b)A specific theory or model of this structure and these dynamics.

Hmm, seems like it could be defined as part of astronomy to me.
Sci.astro.cosmo perhaps?

We'd just get people trying to read their horoscope from their favorite
