The problem (well, part of the problem, anyway) is that some
newsreaders--notably Outlook Express--strips out the "OT" from the header.
That's why you'll often see one "OT" post, followed by an interminable thread
without the "OT."

suppose I could continally fill my killfile with names and such, but I
don't see why it should be my responsiblity to keep the newsgroup from
"appearing" to be an actual *boating* newsgroup.
Could those of you who insist on posting off-topic messages please put
something in the subject (typically, "OT") to indicate it's not
related to the newsgroup.
Thanks!
