It _does_ support the theory that Albright, et al poisoned the waters enough
to drive people away. It's just that the house, finally emptied of its
demons, was left exposed for worse ones, at least one month a year.

Dumbass -


Maybe, but Chung is also smart.

I'll guess it doesn't take him that long. You make the time statement
because someone like you probably couldn't compile that statistic in a
year.


thanks,

K. Gringioni.

Sorry, but I'm still of the opinion that the absolute july jackasses
that post here are still Trdina, Albright and Palachick.

Whereas the full time asses are Henry and that Canadian doofus.

You missed the RIP from the subject line.

Blaming Albright for everything that happens in rbr is a typical
move that allows other people to avoid responsibility for their
own actions. Other people had to reply to him and let him push their
buttons.

You could as well interpret that graph to mean that rbr activity
outside July has declined or stagnated since Albright left the
building. It's also hard to interpret without knowing what's
happened to Usenet activity as a whole, or what traffic has been
replaced by cyclingnews, velonews, or (cough) cyclingforums.com
(is that still up?)

Dumbass -

That is correct - it seems to me that most traffic on newsgroups these
days is on web-based boards.


thanks,

K. Gringioni.

Jim, I agree that we shouldn't blame Albright for everything in the
past but the attitude here as exemplified by Henry is ALL ALBRIGHT ALL
THE TIME.
