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

Stop! You are all responsible. 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.

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.
