Jim, I think the group has now been reduced to about less than 10 of us. I
do not count the Chicagoland shitheads or these confounded cross-posters. It
is too bad what has happened to this group. It all began with Ed Gin last
winter. He is a criminal vandal troll and he murdered this group. Only Mr.
McNamara, myself and a few others protested. Mr. Sherman said nothing. His
silence was deafening!
The topic these days is all about housekeeping and nothing but. No group can
long survive when that is what it has been reduced to. Newbies are the
lifeblood of any newsgroup as they energize the rest of us. No newbies will
come here as long as the Chicagoland shitheads are posting their spamming
****.
By the way, Mr. Sherman is excellent with newbies and I do commend him for
that. I do not bother much with newbies. I am a side dish here, a sort of
clown and jester. I mean to keep the group lively and that is about it for
me. Mr. Sherman is a responder like I am, but he is on topic whereas I tend
not to be. But even Mr. Sherman cannot keep this group alive all by himself.
We need to have newbies coming here or else we are dead.
