Charter of newsgroup

Is this an appropriate newsgroup to submit questions regarding PICs?

I haven't been able to find any newsgroups listed as such that are 
provided by my ISP.

Only if you are willing to ask the same question in an auditorium full
of 500 experienced engineers.

No.  This is the 555 newsgroup.

And sometimes politics.

And cooking, don't forget the cooking and recipes.

Sure.  There are plenty of people here who can answer questions
about PICs -- as you don't mind occasional comments like:

  "I'd rather plunge rusty 10d nails into my eyballs that use a
   PIC processor."

There is no pic newsgroup. Some poorly-run servers carry a spurious
piclist newsgroup (gated to a mailing list?) that has not been
created according to the Big-8 procedures, and is not propagated
by well-configured servers.

Some of us will do almost anything for money. But I draw the line at the
PIC17 and below ;P
