Summary: 


jesus christ chuq.  are you long winded or what?  if you have a point
to make, make it, but just becuase you like to listen to yourself type
doesn't mean others do.  in some respects i agree with you, but if
it takes 104,321 lines to explain it.....

yes, there are assholes on the net and you are probably right in this
case, but then some SA says "i'm not here to run a dating service,
no more net.singles." see where this leads?  you have a good arguement
for cutting out net.flame, but pull your head out --  >50% of the
stuff that comes across *all* the newsgroups is crap or huge quotes of previous
crap.  your arguments for dumping net.flame could be applied to
a LOT of groups by any SA.  thats' why people don't like seeing an
SA dump a group, it's just a start. and once the idea catches on,
we'll have every other site passing on every other news group, the
whole 'system' could be fouled up that way.

chuq - don't come back with 84 screens of counter argument explaining
all sides of the issue and logically reaching all possible conclusions
and anticipating all my questions and hitting on all tangent topics
and......  i normally agree with you, but my god, if anyone can stretch
a few good sentences of thought into a few screenfulls of ascii... :-)
just say what you mean and don't make your articles so long everyone
skips them.


	back to sleep zzzzzzzz...
