Took the boat up to Lake Oroville, Calif. Ramp is about as steep as the
boating mishap ramp, except is about 1000' longer. Lake is down about 60'
so can not get all the way up to Feather Falls, but still 4-500' of water in
the lake. Did a little fishing, watched a great 4th fireworks show on the
lake. All the houseboats line the dam area, for the fireworks, eliciting
the comment from a nearby spectator "Holy ****! look at all those lights.
Looks like Las Vegas". Weather was warm, in the high 90's and stayed hot
until about 1 am. Did a little fishing, caught a few bass, and couple of
silver salmon. Boat has had a small leak that I have not been able to find.
Well, pulling the boat on the 5th, the leak showed itself. Small 1/8" size
corrosion hole in the lower part of the anchor locker. Epoxied for Tuesday
boating. Will have to see if more corrosion, was round like, a small piece
of copper wire, or something fell in the locker. 0.190" thick aluminum.
All in all a great weekend, with my wife, a queen among wives. The Feather
river was giving up some spring run king salmon, but too hot to fish for
them. Spent a lot of time swiming.

I take it that you put yourself in the same light as those you call
"political whores"? You post and respond as much as anybody.

Nope. Rarely, if ever, start a political thread.

Sir:

Do you believe that _continuing_ an acrimonious "political" thread is somehow
different from _starting_ one?

Over the past 30 days, here's your tally: out of 127 posts, 98 are participating
in some sort of "political" squabble.

Most sincerely,
W.T. Hatch

Sir:

Apart from your oft-observed habit of gratuitous insult, you have little way of
knowing whether that individual is _compos mentis_ or not.

For that matter, those who claim to "know" to a certainty about the credentials
of your wife, or of the boats you own or do not own, behave in a fashion equally
puerile to yours.

Most sincerely,
W.T. Hatch

Ah, so, using your senile analogy, if you don't start a thread, then
your not a political poster?

I'm afraid you did. You responded to the following assertion:

Nope.

While it is true that you do not _start_ any of these silly threads, you
certainly present as an avid participant and nurturer of same.

With respect to damage to a newsgroup, your copious posts do as much harm as
those coming from the other "side."
