Perhaps. I find it amusing that JimH will talk about how bad the news group
has become while attacking folks in the same post.

I've found it very easy to disengage from 'discussions' with Harry or his
buddies.

Wayne started attacking me at some point, and with your help, he stepped
it up. I simply returned the favor. Don't forget your own attacks and
snarky remarks.

California Bill comes and goes, nothing new there.

I dunno' but I suspect if I stop addressing your political trolls and
cut and paste, the group will get 50% better. I am going to give it a
try.. Like I said, I kept trying for a while trying to convince myself
you were interested in honest debate, but I have cleared my head and
seen the error of my ways..

My "political" posts for the most part do not personally attack anyone here.

If there were some interesting boating content in this newsgroup...
But there isn't. And attempts to start some posts almost invariably end
up being attacked by the snarks.

Perhaps you might want to query the snarks to see if they plan to stop.

Why don't you see what you can do to persuade Reggie, Loogie, Dan, and a
few of the other snarks to behave?

I'll be glad to follow your lead.

You did not send it. I got a cartoon in the email, addressed from you,
to me and two other members of the list. Based on the content, I
assumed you had actually sent it, guess someone was testing my
email... You did not sent the "peanuts" cartoon??

Someone ought to drop the dime on you and get your guns taken away. You are
