I think most people would prefer that the conversation be in just one
group.  But I think most people would also prefer that if a message
was in two groups that their reply to it also appear in both groups.
So to get the conversation to be in just one group require a sacrifice
on someone's part.  You want it to be on the past of the *next* guy
to post.
