Just checked the headers in my rec.boats filters along with the posters
I actually read here and it looks like this newsgroup is finally heading
towards the oblivion I predicted, it so richly deserves, and you
righties want.

The filters show a declining number of posts from the Four Horse****ters
of the Apocalypse (Herring, Justan, JackOff & Alex), only a couple of
posts from few posters here I read, and, of course, a goodly number of
posts from "The Spoofer."

Good work, righties.


Your "prediction" has lasted almost 20 years now.

It's not really unusual. Use of usenet has been
declining for years. Many younger people today
don't even know it exists.





I really don’t care.

Liar. You've made dozens of posts wishing for the demise of rec.boats, only to
say, "I really don't care."


Fat harry's mental and physical health are obviously circling the drain. Sad to watch. He won't be around to see rec.boats go away unless the internet powers just pull the plug on usenet in general.

It's actually too bad. He used to be able to "turn a phrase" occasionally, and posted some hilarious fiction. Now he's just a bitter old man that re-posts hate screeds he reads on facebook. A sad end.
