1500 postings and only one that could be called boating related.


1. There are very few actual recreational boaters here, maybe a handful.
Most have moved on to other venues.

2. *Most* of the remaining regular posters in this newsgroup are
right-wing ideologues who snarl and snap at anyone who disagrees with
their ultra-conservatism.

3. There are a plethora of posters who get their kicks by posting with
the posting IDs of other posters and who use that mechanism to see if
they can create problems.

4. The most prolific poster these days is an anti-American, racist
asshole who uses the handle Canuck57. Whatever anyone posts, his
comeback posts are full of venom, and really weird interpretations of
reality and history.

This is no longer a venue for recreational boaters, and it never will be
again.
