My wife getting scared

Such a bias toward comrades is not unique to Usenet.

I see the bias you mention as the result of at least two factors: a
result of Mr. Honeck's "contribution" to GA, contrasted against Mr.
Atkielski's maligning of GA (and indeed most other aspects of
non-artificial aviation). Couple that with the social bonding that
occurs among drinking buddies and EAA members, and it's easy to see
how Mr. Honeck's frequent lack of insight and subjective opinion in
lieu of empirical fact are overlooked and tolerated by a certain
segment of the readership of the rec.aviation.piloting newsgroup.

Sorry, Larry, but the truth is that your Usenet persona is that of a
humorless drone who would rather die than laugh at himself. To those
of us who find humor everywhere, especially within ourselves, this
personality trait is the funniest thing of all.

THAT is why you (and Borchert, and MX) find little support here --
because you take yourself too danged seriously.
