No, the only discussion is taking place in rasf1. The moderated group is
dead as well.

No I'm not here. I'm soaking up the joy of a Hamilton win.

Not since the BBC sold out to $ky, now as well as not watching England
play Rugby Union live, or Rugby League live, or England cricket live I
can't watch all the F1 live, sad really.

At least I can watch the British and World Touring Car Championships and
World Rally Championship, until $ky Hoover that up as well.

We now have a British WTCC champion in Rob Huff, not that you'd know
from watching the BBC sports news.

AFAIR the only time that Steve Curtis MBE has been mentioned on BBC is when
he offered advice to one Clarkson, J. Eight times powerboat world
champion. You would think he might have got an occasional mention.

Meanwhile BBC falls over itself to publish EnviroCrap(tm). Carefully
pitched stories intended to sell snake oil to the masses.

And try to take part in a sport that the BBC really hates because it
doesn't fit their trendy lefty, Islington views such as pistol shooting.

Not covered at all during the Olympics and mentioned in the run up only as
shock stories about the evil killers bringing their guns to the UK.
