If what you say is true, then we have people like you to thank for it.
Since rec.boats is a good resource, I would say that your perspective
is a bit screwed...er, I mean skewed.

It is unfortunate that the rec.boats charter never anticipated the
volume and extent of meaningless, nasty, vindictive personal posting
that would occur here. Other newsgroups have a bit more to say about
the "flavor" of their group. I am not an advocate of moderated
groups, but guidelines are sometimes a good thing.

Sounds like the guy that blew bubbles out his swim trunks, then
pointed out that there was a turd in the pool.

noah

jps,
If you or anyone else comes to rec.boats or any Usenet forum to learn
anything you are wasting your time. Usenet is nothing more than a way to
shot the **** with people you enjoy and to argue with those you don't.

Now this does not mean there are not very intelligent people who posts in
UseNet, but the boating info in here ranges from the complete novice who
post dangerous info (i.e. Skipper) to experienced (i.e. Gould, Harry and a
few others). So while you might get an accurate response to a question you
posts, for every good answer you will receive at least twice as many bad and
dangerous responses.

You would be able to find an accurate answer to any question you have much
quicker at the library than you ever would in UseNet.

Now the fact that you and many others would come to rec.boats to discuss
"the American automobile industry, union workers, plant management and the
clever engineers who came up with planned obsolescence" highlights the
reason why only a fool would use rec.boats as a resource tool.

Rec.boats is nothing more than a bull**** session, don't fool yourself.

More drivel from Bill, or is it Charles?

Are you the same idiot who for months could only reply "shut up" when
Harry
posted?

You've filled many lines with insults and next to no information. Waste
of
bandwidth? Oh yeah, you're a full participant.

Why don't you grace us with your vast knowledge of the American automobile
industry and tell us about union workers, plant management and the clever
engineers who came up with planned obsolescence?

I, for one, am aching to learn from your deep pit of knowledge.

Watching some of the idiots in here, such as yourself and basskisser, it
is
just too temping not to highlight your stupidity, the only problem is
sometimes you just make it too easy, like your response to this post.

Uh huh. If you didn't "contribute" your baseless drivel, bandwidth
would
go
down? Using your computation and the fact that my posts are crap,
that
means you're only willing to dump 10% of the raw sewage into the lake
that
someone else is.

So, what's your excuse now?

jps,
Are you here to discuss boats, or you are here to cut and paste
bull****
political articles? The few posts I make tweaking idiots such as
yourself
are nothing compared to the crap you post. The only difference
between
me
tweaking an idiot and your posts are I am up front about what I am
doing,
and I waste 1/10 of the bandwidth you do, tweaking the
conservatives.
