I hereby propose that we rename RRAP to "rec.Steve, Len, and a few others
rag on each other endlessly.alt"
and create a new newsgroup for those of us who really would like to
discuss
amateur radio regulatory and policy
issues ...

I'm getting REALLY tired of all of this endless, childish bickering that
is
OT and doesn't belong here ...
most days, it's hard to find the stuff that this newsgroup is supposed
to
be for because of the volume
of petty, personal bickering that you guys load the newsgroup up with ...

Or, alternatively, you guys can go rag on each other in
rec.radio.amateur.misc like it used to be (and why
this group was created in the first place if memory serves me correctly -
to
provide a place for the serious
regulatory/policy discussion after rec.radio.amateur.misc turned into the
sort of argue_about_off_topic_things
fest that you guys have going on here ...

OK, there ... I've said my peace and now you can tell me to [expletive
deleted for Jim's benefit] off ...

Steve ... why the [expletive deleted for Jim's benefit] do you have to play
the "veterans" card?
I have an honorable discharge, too ... Vietnam era, though I never left the
states ... but I don't see a need to flaunt it ... why do you seem to play
on your military service when you don't have a good excuse for bad behavior?
