But I say we verbally lynch anybody who takes their disagreement into
the real world.

Man, how I'd like to. The anonymous cowards cover their tracks. But,
in some cases, not all that well. I've set my sights on a couple that
I've found out about.



I say BWB: stick around. I think you're more than reasonable. If
old friends or posters can't forgive a little foul language and
bluster, then the devil with them. Alternatively, if you find a NG
with better content, or can tell me how to lobby for one that's
moderated by someone with an open mind, let me know.

How about these:

RAR rec.aviation.realpilots
RAS rec.aviation.scudrunning
RAM rec.aviation.mercenaries
RAC rec.aviation.crustyold****ers

Now that's for me. Any of them ought to do. I say, you just gotta
have a bit of experience to apply to post there. That cuts all the
armchair anonymous assholes out of the loop.


Uh Oh, that last one's going to attract Dr. Sanitizer, and his CPU
death ray, I just know it!

ATTABOY Pac. Hang in there buddy. But, nothing here will change.
This place will continue to be infested with people who are infections
on Earth; armchair dreamers who's deepest dream is what they are
going to cook for dinner tonight instead of what airplane they might
fly in their miserable, insignificant lives. Most of the most brazen
and challenging assholes are those who don't even know how to fly.

You come here and post, looking for fellow pilots to talk with and you
get nothing. If you do get a pilot, he most likely hasn't flown
anything experimental or high performance, or strange. So, you end up
talking to yourself mostly.

You start challenging them about something and you see no depth. You
then ask them what they've flown, what their ratings are and what
they've done, and you get ZERO. That's RAH for the most part.

Once in while you'll get someone with some depth to respond. It's
those rare and exciting moments that you wait for and that keep you
here.

I challenge any of the anonymous pricks who shoot off their brazen
mouths here to post a story about flying. Make it up. You *******s
make most of this **** up anyway. But, do something. Do anything
that might be entertaining. You see, Pac, they can't even do that
because they really don't even know what an aileron is. That's the
real problem. Nope, they come here to be challenging and threatening
to those people who have done it for years.

I've been flying since 1957. I can write a story that's complete bull
**** about any facet of aviation and I'll make it believable here.
I've done it. I've purposely put in flaws so the guys who really did
it, could detect it. I laugh like hell when I get bounced about a 50
cal. weapon in the back of a Huey. I know it's an M-60. But I
purposely put 50 Cal in the story just to see who will know. It's
amazing how little they really know. Then you get to thinking that
they can't even fly. So you continue with a few follow-ups and sure
enough, they screw up something really basic. What a hoot. Maybe
that's part of what I like about this ****---bouncing the frauds. Ha
Ha.

Who knows. But there has been something adictive to RAH for me for
many years. I think it's the instant feedback I get on a post. When
I really think something out and put it here, although there is
usually a lot of garbage to follow, there are some people who do think
and who do add some things, no matter what their depth in flying
experience.

Take a guy like John Amp Meter. John doesn't have a lot of flying
experience, but he did build an RV-6 and he learned to fly it well
enough to get a license. That's a great thing. John never pushes
his posts into the areas he knows nothing about. He's an honest man.
If he's going to write a story about something it's obvious that he
writes it with his viewpoint. He doesn't push the envelope to be
something he isn't. He's a breath of fresh air for me to read.
There's never any bull **** with John's posts.

Bourbon is another one. He's an old high timer like me, but he never
pushes into the stuff he doesn't know about. If you read his posts,
they are always his opinion about something, or a funny quip about
something. He too is an honest man and he is insightful.

The insulting fakes who threaten and challenge and abrade you here is
what wears me out. Mostly, there is so much wrong with each post they
make, it would take too much time to counter it because you would have
to lay too much foundation for anyone to follow it. So, you just take
their **** and shake your head.

Ahh, well, I'm rambling on about crap that is not even fun. I'm
outahere. **** ya all.

Bad Billy, Bad to the bone!
