I like all sorts of boats, I like hiking, fishing, camping outdoors in a
tent, I like bicycling, I like travel, I like collecting and shooting
firearms, I like old cars, especially crappy, hopeless old English sports
cars from the 1950s and early 1960s.

I don't like politics. I don't like insulting people, especially people I
don't know and probably will never meet, I don't like arguing for the
sake of argument, I don't like ganging up on other posters, I don't like
nasty language.

I have the feeling I have chosen the wrong group in which to waste a
little free time. I haven't done a survey and I won't, but my gut tells
me that about 90% of the posts in here are attacks on other posters, on
politicians, on where one stands in the political spectrums.

Is that the fun part?
What's your point?
That attacks on or insults of other posters seem to be the fun here rather
than friendly discussions.

You can thank Harry Krause for trying to set that tone 15 years ago. It's
been an ongoing effort but it really didn't take hold till about five
years ago. As was pointed out to you a while ago, there are sailing and
paddling groups that might suit you better, unless, of course you are an
anonymous troll who likes to stir up rec.boats.
Are you referring to the Harry who posters say no longer posts here? So his
ghost is responsible for the current crop of insults? Something to think
about.

snerk Only one poster here is continuing to call names and call others
by name here lately since yo... er, um, harry left.... but just like
harry, you don't seem to notice that snerk So far we got a full
count, the next pitch should get us through this inning.. LOL!

Why DO you "call others by name" then? Oh, and IF you really knew
anything about IT and could read header information you'd know this guy
isn't Harry. But then, don't let your logic get in the way of your
insanity.

I wouldn't put it past Krause to use a different computer and newsgroup
reader to hide his identity and feed his obsession. If he is doing that
it is probably driving him insane. He's an "A" personality on
overload. Narcissists don't have anything on him.
