Yep. On my newsreader, I plonked about 40 people from this NG so far.
Even shortwave sportfishing, or whatever he calls himself, I plonked.

Maybe it's time for rec.boats.moderated?

Since you don't seem to have much interest in boats,why don't you
summertime boaties form a new group like rec.boats.fuk'em.lets.talk.politics

Ah, a newbie.

This group serves me and my own political rants. It is also my forum
to show off how perfect I am, and that I have more boating knowlegde
than anybody else here.

Thats about how many I have...including that OT poster. I get a very nice
boating list using my kill file and filters...except for one pointed-headed
twit, who stalks me, by changing his name a dozen times.

Enjoy the group.
