Too bad you couldn't avoid screwing it up with political diarrhea in
the header.

Chuck, have you ever posted anything political here?

Not for a long time.

In fact, if you'd stop staring in the mirror and take a good look at
the NG, you'll see that
almost *nobody* is posting political crap here anymore. Makes it a
better group.

With very rare exceptions:

NOYB has stopped.
Harry has stopped.
I have stopped.
John H has stopped
jps has stopped
"Smithers" has stopped
Bert has stopped
JimH has pretty well stopped
Doug Kanter has pretty well stopped or cut back a lot
Don White has pretty well stopped or cut back a lot
And the list goes on.


You can include me in the stopped or cut back and pretty well stopped
catagory.

Good news.

More boats and less bull**** makes a better newsgroup.

We know for a fact that political posts, personal attack posts,
religious posts, etc just start a bunch of fights that nobody ever wins
and cast a bad smell over everything else around. Folks who aren't
trying to be a deliberately disruptive pain in the butt will exercise
restraint and avoid dumping items like that into the mix.
