well, it seems Martin's point is that plugging POA as an alternative
to rec.aviation.* contributes to the exodus of group contributers,
and that actually hurts the group.

How can it possibly hurt this group any further?

You are correct that rec.aviation.piloting has been damaged by vandals with
the maturity of a 10 year old. And those pilots are an embarrassment.

I loath the setup of POA, and find little to no enjoyment trying to read it.

Yep, the user interface stinks.


That being said, all one can hope to do is to keep good people in touch with
each other, and POA is all that is left.

All one can hope at this point is that this group finish its flaming death
gasps, and later that it can possibly be reborn from the ashes.

That's the hope. However, I suspect that the trolls and vandals won't
grow up.
