Let's talk about dodgers on sailboats.

In article , says... I do find it humorous that of late a couple of rec.boats.cruising posters are now posting/crossposting here because their "home" newsgroup is dead, dead, dead. Why would you find it humorous that an attention-seeker like Neal would crosspost? Or that the cruising group is "dead?" Newsgroups are dead only because former participants are dead. Usenet isn't what is used to be. That's not "humorous". It's just fact. Boating is alive. There are plenty of active web forums. There are a few experienced boaters here who can provide some useful information, and are willing to do so. That would be Wayne, Greg, Richard. Otherwise, this is a mostly a political clown and insult show. But nobody is here against their will. I haven't seen any "useful" boating information posted here in years. Some years ago, Richard posted some interesting videos of a voyage he took in the Navigator he used to own. Before he died, Skipper posted some interesting and useful videos on trailering. We had a couple of real dealer/repair guys here, but the crazies chased them off. I never said or implied "boating" was dead, although it is pretty much dead in rec.boats. I find it amusing the rec.boats.cruising guys crosspost here because there is nothing going on there. I guess they don't know there is nothing going on here, either. The best boating posts are on the web forums. I don't have any use for "Captain Neal," but, unlike the majority of right-wing clowns here on rec.boats, at least he has a boat, apparently it floats, and he spends time on it. -- If right-wing assholes could fly, rec.boats would be an airport! |
