I'd have to say no to that one Jeff, since I complain about the OTs AND
I've
contributed plenty of on topic discussion.
And by the way, strictly speaking, it's not being OT that I'm complaining
about, but the relentless beating of dead horses, the sheer volume of
redundant rhetoric, and the boring, boring, boringness of armchair
politicians.

OT posts never actually contribute any On Topic posts?

Here is a neat trick. If someone posts an OT topic, but fails to label it as
OT, a hint that it is OT is if it contains the words "Kerry" or "Bush" in
the subject. Odds are it is not a sailing post. Nobody told me this, I
figured it out on my own...... ;o)

Kerry does wind surfing.
Bush is a stinkpotter.

I was trying to get back to a sailing topic. Those are facts, however.

Am I the only one that thinks that people are posting an unnaceptable amount
of OT posts about political issues? There are dedicated newsgroups for
discussing such stuff. At the moment it seems like 50% of the posts in here
are non-sailing related.

Gee Mike MC,

Ive seen 2 post by you here.... and neither are sailing related.

So it seems you are the worst offended by far.

No. Others share your opinion.

You're low. It's more like 70%.

If it bothers you, why don't you post a sailing-related topic?

Thing is sailing is NOT immune to poliitics.
