has anyone else noticed???
RAH has become BORING... no one with any interesting posts or questions.
BWB has been gone for well over a year and hadn't posted for a long time before that but NO ONE has stepped up and filled the gap. I know Billy had ****ed off a lot of people but at least he got people thinking and posting. His forte was the ability to "read" people and know the right buttons to push. With no one to do that RAH now lacks anyone with any interesting ideas or posts... Prove me wrong... John |

But I am not missing BWB at all. I rather wonder if we'll ever hear again from Bob Hoover, and perhaps Jim Weir. And there must be more, whom I am not thinking of right now. |

Ron Wanttaja there is still room for a certain Ron Wanttaja to rediscover N500F and **** everyone off with details of the $3.50 annual overhauls. to me that was the era when RAH was addictive! I had nothing to do today so I spent 3 hours on usenet. I was pretty busy today but I still managed 3 hours on usenet. God I was flat out like a lizard drinking, try as I might I only managed 3 hours on usenet. remember those days? I think what we need is to ignore the overbearing mantra of safety, thumb our nose at the terrorists and just go out and fly off the world's last avgas in a huge party. I cant envisage that tales of derring do involving stolen photovoltaics will enthuse many so we may as well party the place to death. "grandson, now avgas that was a fuel!! it twinkled green in the jar, water wouldnt mix with it and the tetraethyllead had a musty aroma that hung around like chanel number 7. gawd those were the days" electrons! can you put a spanner to one? gawd you cant even see the buggers. you kids dont know what it is to live! cough cough pass me smokes over will yah?" :-) Stealth Pilot |

Since many think that the only way to use it is through Google, thousands are being chased away by the spam. Prove me wrong... Yes please! Vaughn |

Yes please! Vaughn Whoops, darn mouse sent before I was ready G. The Toyota truck group used to have a lot of info and misinfo posts. Not much on the group anymore. Pictures Aviation had a lot of great posts up to about a year ago. There are still some good ones but also a few posters that just have to use Y encoding. A lot of folks have went to moderated forums to avoid the spam, I think. -- We have met the enemy and he is us-- Pogo Anyolmouse |
