I think his wife beating makes most people so sick that they pipe in about how much he's hated. Why doesn't he get it that most people find him revolting? The reason a fat, drunken, pig like Tom Gardner hates me so much is that I constantly call him out on his many lies as well as his inability to run the business he inherited from his parents. Gardner's out of control drinking has accelerated to the point that I think 2014 is the year Ohio Brush will finally go tits up. |

Ignoring the posts by subject or author is fairly easy to do, I just hit the
Delete key as I preview the subjects, then the posts worth reading only take a few minutes. -- WB .......... "rangerssuck" wrote in message ...

I do the same, most of the time - successfully ignoring the drivel. Other times, however, it's like when you're driving and you see something ahead that looks like a squashed animal and you know you shouldn't look but you can't help it, and it's really gross, but you looked at it and now it's burned into your memory...
Sometimes I read the crap in this group, and sometimes I get sucked into the vortex of doom that is the world of politics in rcm. And then I look at the clock and, well, life really is too short.

Heh.. some of the OT posters appear to have the same level of intelligence
as roadkill. When the last few existing fanatics move on, one way or another, it's possible that RCM could again be a thriving source of metalworking discussions. I've got lots of good memories (and saved discussions) of RCM.. pre-gummer, when the many participants shared metalworking experience freely with few very prejudicial remarks. -- WB ..........
