Is it just me or has the flood of kook posts become worse since
supernews died?

Not by much. I have noticed a few extra spams that SN would
have likely blocked. However, McNut has been with us for quite
some time.
Like I said in SGE, I'm tired of him making that group his
personal blog where he talkes to himself about crap all day,
most of which has nothing to do with the group.

The worst thing is that he (and the other kooks) has driven
off the real scientists. It's been a while since we've had
anything real posted. Sigh.

Exactly. Anyone who checks in just sees this tard and his
weather postings.
This is one of those rare cases where ignoring him doesn't
work as he likes to hear himself talk. Hmmm...reminds me
of some Metallica lyrics... "My Friend of Misery" if you're
familiar with their stuff. Doesn't describe him exactly,
but some parts are appropriate.
The only thing I can think of is to start posting on topic
stuff. But considering how much he yacks it'll be hard to
drown him out.
