It was with great dismay that I read the latest contributions to alt.
sailing.asa.

I had hoped that the new, so-called and self-proclaimed newsgroup
leadership would not allow things to become so out of control.
There simply is no justification for such debasement of what used
to be an example of creativity and good humor.

I am saddened when I see newbies hung up as trophies.

*I*, for one, will not mince my words to spare the sensibilities of the thin
skinned and ignorant.

*You* are obviously a bit of a wussy. It's no wonder that Gilligan has been
so quiet lately. His hero has dissappeared from view.

Poor Donal, not only has he demonstrated he is
a cpwardly, limp-wristed socialist, and an anti-
American as well as an anti-Semite but now he
reveals he has no concept of sarcasm. Even his
hero Saddam Hussein appreciates sarcasm or
he would not be releasing crummy voice tapes
claiming he is still in power . . .

My wrist is indeed limp by comparison with your's. I'm married, and
therefore I exercise it less.

You are absolutely correct!

Do you think that I need to learn about sarcasm? Is sarcasm an essential
skill?

I wonder if non-Americans have the ability to learn sarcasm at all!
