Time to unsubscribe from what used to be an informative boating related newsgroup. Way too political now for my likes. If only a civil level of debate could be occasionally bantered, I could tolerate it. The childish insults and name calling is simply not worth my bandwidth. Quite possibly I'll re-subscribe after the elections, but I doubt it. Enjoy yourselves while I get the boat ready for fishing... This hasn't been a boating newsgroup since "Reggie Smithers" re-emerged here. |

Maybe some more than others but I haven't seen a single regular poster here who isn't at least part of the problem in some way. Even the ones who like to think of themselves as somehow "above the fray" do their part. As do you. Absolutely! But I can't hold a candle to you with your dots and tinyurl links. That's REALLY dispruptive, and completely lacking in real and ernest participation of any kind. |

He's really incapable of independent thought, or, as he ages rapidly, seemingly any thought. |

The three stooges should know where they stand by now. They have been playing defense for a quite a while. I haven't cared to check, but my bet is that Gene's server is rather idle these days. I'll also bet the same early fans of Chuck's board who were drooling for it reverted back to their old news server when they found Gene's made them disappear. |
