Nothing died. It's not real life. It's a newsgroup. There are others.

It's not dead, Thom, just lifeless!

Wow... Neal sure is one sick guy. We should pity him. I feel terrible for
him.
Not to worry . . . I can assure you that you and rec.boats.cruising have
nothing to fear from me, Wilbur Hubbard.
Although I am a friend of the Good Captain's I lack the know-how to cause
the blacklisting and demise of a newsgroup. Unlike him, I don't have friends
in high places of power in Usenet (and elsewhere) like he does. But, as long
as you continue to abide known netKKKops the likes of Jonathan Ganz in this
group I'd guess rec.boats.cruising is also in some danger of being reduced
to smoldering rubble heap should the Good Captain get wind of it and return
to make things right. But, if the Good Captain does find out, don't blame
me. I won't tell him where known netKKKops have slunk off to do their dirty
work. Besides, I don't think they even know what wi-fi is where he is
wheeling and dealing in Cuba these days.

Get over it, be a grown-up and pull up your big-boy pants. In case
you missed it, Chinese New Years just happened, and that is the time
to forgive and forget all the s**t that happened in the previous
year. I'm thinking you must have missed a few of those Chinese New
Years. You should go talk to your imaginary friend and convince the
two of yourselves that it's time to get freekin over it.
That of course applies to all the protagonists in this little Grecian
drama that Alt.Sailing. ASA has become.
Spring is almost here, and sailing will recommence for all the iced-in
subscibers. Maybe we can still have our little waterfront pub to
share a few laughs and poke some fun at each other without all the
vitriolics?
Just a simpleminded hope from a simple sailor.
Cheers,
Mike
There is this difference between happiness and wisdom: he that thinks
himself the happiest man, really is so; but he that thinks himself the
wisest, is generally the greatest fool.
Have a nice day

Yep, it's all a conspiracy, isn't it?
It's always "them" pulling you down, making you fail, making you
unpopular. Too bad, so sad.

It's a bit late for that.

I like that concept.

Well, it was always a bit of a soap opera, doncha think? And some have
more talent.... or tolerance... for dramatics than others.

It comes and goes with the seasons; however I don't really expect new
talent on the level of Tadpole and JAXAshby to return alt.ASA to it's
former manic level. Oh well.

I thought it was that Katysails witch who brought in all the meows and alien
flonkers??? Isn't it true that she sent in multiple bogus abuse complaints
(netKKKopping) to one Gary Burnore who is the head of the alien flonkers and
he investigated and found out the complaints were all from Katy and Jon Boy
and that Katy had sent in complaints from five or six different computers
under different names to make it seem like dozens of people where
complaining about the Good Captain. When the higher-ups in Usenet
administration found out about the festering netKKKop den in alt.sailing.asa
they informed the meow meow army and both subscribed and informed the group
they needed to exorcise the netKKKops or else the group would be reduced to
a smoldering pit.
They were very patient according to Capt. Neal. They gave the group many
chances and almost a year to comply but too many in the group continued to
support the netKKKops thus bringing ruin upon the group in the end.
Katysails has slunk off in shame but Jon Boy remains and as long as he
remains alt.sailing.asa will continue to be a dead group. Soon many servers
will quit carrying it because of the low volume of posts.

He's delusional... what can you do...

Of course... I heard it was the freemasons.

Neal, I have edit your post and left only the factual parts,
unfortunately it amounts to a null set.
Cheers
Marty
Ha ha ha ha! How could you edit "Neal's" post when you edited MY (Wilbur
Hubbard's) post. And your edit seems to have left my posting intact. Have
you been popping some of Jon Boy's LSD pills?
But, I'm afraid the facts as stated by ME remain the facts whether or not
you try to delete them. History is history and you cannot revise history by
deleting it. What's next for you. Burning history books at the library??
Hope you're better flicking your Bic than pecking away at your keyboard.
Wilbur Hubbard
Sigh, you must have been a terrible disappointment to your mother.
