Jim: Must you start every one of your off-topic threads with a
copyright violation? It's one thing to point people to an article
with an excerpt and a source (a link is nice). But when all you do is
post articles, in their entirity, without any comment, you simply look
like you don't have an original thought in your head.

How many on-topic post have you made in the last seven days?

Why do you need to copy entire articles, in violation of copyrights,
to rec.boats. There are hundreds of newsgroups where this stuff is
on-topic, why don't you go to one of those groups?
