HTH I STAND CORRECTED The original post applied to both nascar and fly fishing. The OP asked about the weather cooperatiing, both race fans and fishermen prefer good weather. |

Formula 1 races in the rain, as do most other forms of racing except nascar. Fly fishing in the rain is always great. |

FWIW, if you don't realize it, you (and any who respond without trimming the headers) are cross-posting to a number of unrelated groups. If you do realize it, um, well...carry on, I guess... HTH I actually went to the original post and coppied all of the groups back in just to make my point. FOR THE RECORD There are only two groups in this crosspost. Hardly an example of a serious problem. The larger issue is that the original post has no importance to either group it was posted to. Since you took the time to reply politely, I'll make one reply to let you and anyone else interested on the NASCAR group know what's happening. A poster who posts on both groups, usually as "Peaceful Bill," apparently got his panties in a knot about something (I have no idea what about as I generally ignore him - the few times I've read his posts, they are childish troll-like silliness - maybe he's just another USENUT) and cross-posted 10-15 random replies, some inflammatory, to the FFing group and a number of other random groups, although not all posts went to all groups. Apparently, the FFing group was the only group they all went to. He used a couple of sockpuppets - "Another Sunny Day" and "Mine Isn't Yours" - to do it. If you want to see all of it, check out the FFing group in the header via your news reader/client or here's a Google link for those not wanting to fool with adding a group to their reader/client, getting headers, etc.: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.o...y/topics?hl=en And with this reply, unless there is something in particular, I'm gonna ignore this thread past direct replies, if any.

Don't put yourself in the same class of wingnuts as "Beancounter." Here's a suggestion: Use whatever freaky avatar names you want on the whack-job sites where your "friends" play out the radical nonsense. Some of these folk sound like future convicts but thats your choice. But be a man and use your real world name on the Fly fishing site. It makes a big difference. Dave |
