Bruce - PLEASE spit the hook before you drag the whole group under
with you. Wilbur/Neal is here because his former hangout at
alt.sailing asa got so worn out that it is now mostly a ghost town.
All the worthwhile and even most of the worthless posters have left in
disgust. He's set his sights on doing the same here. Either kill file
or ignore him, but DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE HIS PRESENCE IN ANY MANNER.
EVER!

I'm assuming that you are wise enough to benefit from "a word to the
wise"


I second that, except that the other newsgroup is alive and well. Most
people figured it out pretty quickly to ignore most of what he says.

Not true. That group used to have 20 or more regulars, most of who
contributed almost daily and were worth reading - and over 100 posts a
day. Now it's a small handful of humorless chumps (4? 5?) who bicker
back and forth over nothing. It amounts to, "You are... No YOU are".
You, yourself, are engaged in yet another of those over there right
now with "Macho Joe". Very tedious, and not worth the trip from
anywhere at this point.


You sure got that right! It's good to see the so-called Captain doesn't
fool some people. He's is one of the worst offenders yet he tries to act
like it's everybody else's fault. Besides that, he's the main reason
there's so much off-topic stuff with multiple cross posts from all sorts
of unrelated groups. It's because the word got around that he's a
snitching netcop who writes about as many bogus abuse reports to news
servers as he writes posts. He's a proven hypocrite - saying one thing
and doing the exact opposite. I've been lurking there for a couple
months and it's not too hard to see what's going on. On top of all
that, he's a liar.

It would be a real shame if that were allowed to fester over here,
too. Hence my advice.




You need to do a recount, and Joe and I are having a mostly civil
discussion. Joe's a good guy. This group is more about the details. We chat
about the bigger social issues. :-)
