So... I get the offer to try the new better Agent and decided to give the software and USENET a whirl... again. 30 day freebie with Giganews, loaded the new software and I'm back on. The HSM newsgroups have fared reasonably well. Rec.boats, apparently, not so well. One boat reference in 30 days. Not good... this may be a 30-day-only vignette....

We need to take back the group from the loony tunes segment - don't know if its possible. Oh, give it a chance. There's not a whole lot of boating going on anywhere right now.

I think the problem is we don't have enough interesting stuff happen on the boat. I am still getting out 3 or 4 times a week but nobody wants to hear stories about the same 3 or 4 ospreys I see all the time or the snowbirds I pull off sand bars. I guess if these new motors broke more often we could complain about that. Greg I've always enjoy your 'adventures'. |

A lot of people stopped telling their more interesting boating stories after Harry started putting everyone down. I guess that's all he had left once everyone realized what a fraud he was. The spoofing and sock puppet epidemics chased away a lot of good people also. Unfortunately a lot of folks have moved on to web based moderated forums. There are some benefits to that but it tends to fragment the knowledge base and doesn't have the same character. |
