The shill that posted this doesn't hang around to discuss the issue; it is
a shotgun approach of spamming usenet to promote his cause.

If you want to see what a formerly good usenet group looks like when
people insist on discussing politics/religion/crap, go look at
rec.crafts.metalworking. Is that what you want this group to look like?

Don't feed the trolls.

Jon, I don't agree. If you can't learn how to filter, how to block sender,
or how to just use those little arrow thingies on your computer, just pile
it all in a box and take it to the Salvation Army. You're too stupid to own
a computer. rec.crafts.metalworking is a great group populated by people
who have forgotten more than most people know. You just have to look
through the weeds for the roses. Of course those who know how to eliminate
weeds (filter, block sender, ignore) do better than those who just run willy
nilly Pollyanna into it and then bitch because they can't handle reality,
weeds, and thorns. YES, YES, YES, the answer is NOT TO FEED THE TROLLS, and
then they will just find another bridge to live under.

But don't insult rec.crafts.metalworking. I do notice that a lot of folks
from here and all over go over there and soil themselves long enough to take
advantage of the treasure trove of knowledge.

RTFM on your computer.
