|What is idiotic about that?


(1) You can't be reading this, nor respond to it, without
"subscribing" to rec.boats.... even Google groups is using that
terminology.


(2) You posted that you were "out" and that others would know how to
contact you, if they wished. That clearly indicates that you wouldn't
be "here."

Idiot was probably used as a pejorative term and was not proper.
Addict is more accurate, descriptive, and carries no pejorative
connotation. You are merely addicted to posting personally held
dogmatic positions at rec.boats that tend to anger other posters.


You've made worthwhile contributions in the past. I simply don't
understand where you are coming from, now. This is becoming as surreal
as my last (verbal) conversation with Skipper.


If he is using Agent, it is not necessary to 'subscribe' to a group to see
headers, read the posts, or respond to the posts. One simply looks in the
"All Groups" list, finds 'rec.boats' and downloads the headers.

Yes, Loogy has made some great contributions and can be a lot of fun. But
he, like a couple others, is obsessed with an urge to respond to every HK
and JimH post that is made.

It's a damn shame.


The damn shame is that Loogy, DK, FL Jim, BAR and several others here,
including you, cannot behave like grown men and perpetuate the problem
with this NG.
