Pardon me for jumpin in here, but you guys evidently try to scare
eachother and don't realize that this is a Fly Fishing Forum or are
you really just enjoying upsetting people of a different breed.-

Like it or not, the history of this group is a little bit off your
goals for this group.

By mutual consent of those who have been participating for 10 years
or so, any topic likely to come up during a fly fishing outing is
fair game here.

Check out http://www.cs.nmsu.edu/~jcook/ROFF/ for some details.

This is the way this group has been for ten years. If you don't like
it, you can a) try to change it, or b) go participate in some of the
dozens of other flyfishing discussion groups. One or two will surely
be to your liking.

If you opt for "a", we're all waiting to see your stellar
contributions. ("Stellar", by the way, means "outstanding; like a
star"). Of course, if this is the route you take, be aware that
those
who have actively contributed for a decade might draw the opinion
that you haven't earned the right to say word one about what goes
on here.

I owe an [censored] to The Veterans of this News Group,
Here it is I do [censored], I admit I was wrong by trying to Protect
My New Friend when he did'nt need to be.
I read the rules of the Banter 10-3-05 and Did'nt realize you guys are
friends also. Doesn't sound like it by the way you speak to one
another,
I will stay out of ALL conversations,unless Spoken to first.

Now, what fun is THAT going to be? ;-)

Now I realize what It means to Insert Foot.
TimJ, I thought someone was Attacking You

Aw, shoot. These here boys are in attack mode most of the time. The good
news is they couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

and acouple of others and I was only trying to Protect

While I appreciate the sentiment, no protection is needed. I have my
super deflector shield and my decoder ring, but even those are rarely
needed (see above.) Besides, you don't know me except through the swap
and I could be a real flaming asshole. I'm not, but I could be.

Please [censored] Me. IT Will NOT Happen
Again.
It would be comforting to see Peace in this old World,
Again, I [censored] for causing Problems in this Group.

Problems? We don gots no steenkin problems. Well, except for that
apology thingy. Don't ever, EVER, *NEVER* apologize on roff. It's just
not done. ;-)
