I can think of three "harms."

1) Newbies take one look at this (and run away)... they don't know
this has been going on for decades..... and that there really isn't as
much hate flowing as is immediately apparent.... that some of the
"combatants" actually know (and fish and boat with) each other outside
of this little virtual section of life.

2) Even with cabin fever closing in, there must be *something* more
imbued with good karma that all of this sniping.

3) It encourages boatless trolls who have no interest in ever
contributing anything positive or of boating content. Unlike the rest
of you, even with the coming warm weather, they aren't going to become
any more worth reading or responding to than they are, now.

Scott, you have a perverse view on the reason this NG exists. To you
it is a playground where arguing and personally attacking members
here is acceptable.

That sort of thinking is what led this NG into the gutter.

Gotta go.............time to see if I can entice my wife to turn off
American Idol............. ;-)

It started before you got on board Jim. Harry was doing the exact same
dog and pony show when I first looked at the group years ago. His
straight men have changed over the years but he hasn't. The nastiness
you see from some of us is drawn out by old Harry boy himself. You
want to change the tone of the group, change Harry or get rid of him.
I tried to put some heat under his tail but apparently it didn't work.
I was counting on him having a modicum of self respect but I couldn't
find any in him. There is no way to get to this man. He's like an
empty head with a wind up mouth. I give up.
I remember a post from Dick (Eiscboch) a while back regarding you
(Florida Jim) stating "when Jim speaks, folks listen". He was talking
about your knowledge of marine engines.

Until recently I saw nothing to prove that statement wrong.

You then morphed into a Harry attack dog, even going to the extreme of
changing your handle a couple of times.

Go back to your roots Jim. Otherwise you look like a Booger, Herring
or Reggie.

I recall you getting mad at a certain someone because he has more stuff
than you. I see you attacking Harry one day and sticking your nose up
his butt the next. I see you as rather two faced. Now do you really
think I value your thoughts? Nitey nite. Don't let the bed bugs bite.


You are an immature asshole Jim. See ya!

Hmmm. I don't recall Florida Jim having any special knowledge of marine
engines.

I could be mistaken. I thought it was a Jim who lived in Florida.




We have an infrequent visitor here from Florida who is a top-notch
outboard mechanic by trade, but he's no Jim. :)

Harry wants me...

Harry, did you not earlier say that only the stupid got
drafted?

Dear Dumb John:

You got drafted, right? Your question, therefore, is asked and
answered.

It must suck to be so embarrassed that you have to snip

He was deferred,reclassified 1A,dropped off the list, and
blessed by a
twist of fate. Seems like he went to a lot of trouble to stay
home with
the girls. And now he finally declares that he is not a draft
dodger. I
guess we should believe him. Eh. Harry wouldn't lie, would he?

I am not defending Harry but I have to ask this question to you,
Booger,
Herring and Reggie....

Why the hell are you guys so obsessed about him and his
past/present life?
I can understand 3rd graders engaged in that behavior, but not
grown men.

So now you will just need to go fishing (ie slinging ****) in place of

Actully, my opinion (fwiw) is this isn't becoming of a person of
which you would claim to be.
I can imagine this coming from a nameless, faceless troller, but not
of a person of any type of educational or professional standard.

Why stoop to the behaviour that some would expect you to?

Just a thought

Probably my fault, I did the "ChinaSpam" to one of Harrys political
posts last week. Didn't want to, but I couldn't help myself;)

Yup, I have to agree, it is all your fault. Before you came here, Harry
was the nicest guy you have ever meet. His personality disorder is all
your fault. Now go stand in the corner until I tell you you can come out.

You really, truly are an obsessed a**hole.
Where, by the way, did you get the idea I "turned and ran"? Is that your
