Greetings, All...

You know, over the past dozen+ years, I have drifted in and out of the
various r.r.a. groups, just now returning after a better than 3 year
vacation.

I see the same discussions (or arguments) still going on. Different people
involved in some cases, but by no means all.

The flame wars, the doom-sayers, the Pollyanna's, the trolls.... They are
still here.

And, after all this time, there are still no solutions, no right, and no
wrong... Only biased and prejudiced opinions on all sides that have no
desire to carry on mature and adult discussions with the aim of reaching a
solution through compromise.

Am I, through this note, feeding the trolls? Maybe... But rest assured that
over the past week or so of sand-bagging I have many already on block and it
is, after all, a simple matter to block the ones that climb up on the bridge
anew.

Take Care & 73

Yup, they seem to come with the territory I guess. I don't mind - sort
of. I do wish the Len-Brian-Steve bar room brawl would confine itself to
a few threads, but it seems to have to spill over into everything.

The purpose of some here is not to have a mature and adult discussion.
It is to bait and insult.

Of course you could subscribe to the group and block everyone! ;^)

I actually did consider on my return to the groups of taking the Linux
Approach... Block everyone and only let through those that are "safe".
