Congratulations

We have enough bozo's here to listen to, we don't need those from another group! OK, I agree with Jeff, politics is not appropriate here. If Harry Krause will suggest an appropriate venue I'll respond. |

If Harry Krause will suggest an appropriate venue I'll respond. Actually, I don't mind a little political stuff, given the season. But there's no need to bring in "outsiders" from the bar down the street. Agreed. I'm not sure if artyguy (aka TheOne aka ShhhImListeningtoReason...) followed me over from the audio newsgroups or found this group on his own, but this is a sailor's bar, and if he's not a sailor he should bug out. I can hold my own without him. OTOH, since this is a sailor's bar, I have no problem with sailors mouthing off about whatever's on their mind. If they're spouting nonesense I might try to set them straight, or ignore them if I think they're hopeless. Likewise, anybody is free to agree with me, disagree with me, or ignore me. I do draw the line at thread hijacking - if there's a sailing related conversation going on it's rude to inject irrelevant things, especially flamebait. Unless they're funny, of course. BTW, I'm sure I'm not the first person to make the "neighborhood bar" analogy, but I see nothing has really changed in the last 6 years: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.sailing.asa/msg/445148622cbd5658?hl=xx-bork //Walt P.S. Thanks for the congratulations, dbhora. I was trying to figure out how to accept it graciously without gloating, and just couldn't manage it. Anyway, thanks. Now there's serious work to do. |
