Giganews, loaded the new software and I'm back on.



The HSM newsgroups have fared reasonably well. Rec.boats, apparently,

not so well. One boat reference in 30 days. Not good... this may be a

30-day-only vignette....



Hope everybody is having a good new year.....

Gene, you left a big hole in the boating content when you left, not to

mention a badly needed voice of reason. We need to take back the

group from the loony tunes segment - don't know if its possible.





Get rid of FOAD and political discussion would drop by 80%.

Maybe 90%.

He started 61 political threads in January.

Say what?
Some of y'all see Harry behind every tree.
I have to assume Harry is FOAD, if so, I counted 61 threads in
December (Sorry I wrote January in my post)

He's been away soaking up the sun for a week now with very limited internet access.
I doubt he has started one thread this month.

I need to ask, do you think this would be a better group if FOAD was
not here?

I just did a thread count for this month, this group might die
without FOAD! He better hurry back. :-)
