It's important for our international friends to know we're not all
insane Christo-Fascists here in the USA, and that some of us are
resisting the usurpation of our country.

Hmm. Yeah. I'd forgotten that, when our international friends need
reassurance or general insight into America's political climate, the
first and most natural place for them they look is rec.radio.shortwave.
I keep lapsing back into the old belief that this is a hobbyist
newsgroup, when of course its true purpose is to assuage the fears of
our international friends, who are thoroughly dependent upon
rec.radio.shortwave as their primary source of news and information.

In fact, given the vast geopolitical importance of rec.radio.shortwave,
I wonder why you don't hear more about it in the 'mainstream' media, or
why so few posts turn up here from major political figures. Weird.

Perhaps your antenna is defective.

At least Yoda did reply to my post about Grundig S350 $99.99 and Grundig
PE 100 $29.99 Radios over there at the Radio Shack store inside
Metocenter Mall just across Highway 80 from me.I hope this post is ON
Topic.

We do have a 'troll' problem. There's no doubt about it. I don't
understand the whole process of creating and managing usenet

newgroups
very well. However, there are things that can be done about this
problem, if people get sufficiently ticked off. It's sad to imagine
this group as 'moderated', but who knows....maybe that's what it

will
take.


You'd need someone as the moderator. I'm to busy to
do it; and I imagine that most others are too. Ace could,
but I doubt he'd want the job.


he's part of the problem...not likely part of the solution

Or the ng moderated, for
that matter.

What are you thinking? Don't reply to me! Your time is too valuable and
should be devoted exclusively to saving the world via your posts to

The world is beyond saving.

I just want to be on record as having known all along that the Forces
of Darkness are in control.

It's more many cases of "I've got testosterone poisoning and I've GOT TO
SHOUT DOWN THE TROLL" problem.

It doesn't work.

Thanks for clarifying.

Now, don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out.
