Thanks Henry!
I come in here to learn some more about bass fishing,see what the new hot
baits might be,and relax with folks that have a same interest I do.
In the future I will just consider RL to be the groups "mad fishing
scientist" and let it go at that.Lifes too short to worry about every little
thing.I appreciate your reply.

What has he done to create such animosity from everyone?

Try googleing his posts from a year or two ago.
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...s.fishing.bass

Is it his advertising his products or the way he does it?

His attitude. Definitely. There are dozens of people on this newsgroup
alone who could have introduced his products without all the flaming. That
doesn't mean they would all like the products, but they wouldn't have felt
like they were being forced to listen to fingernails on a chalkboard.


Is it spam?

Sometimes.

Is it jealousy?

No way would I trade places with him.

Is he a braggart?

Does a cat have a climbing gear?

I'd really like to know before someone steals his lunch money or tells
the teacher.
I can understand the abuse Al(ice) gets,he is deserving for sure,but I
really don't know why RL gets the abuse.So can anyone tell me what the
real problem is?

I read here to learn to be a better fisherman and relax. I can't relax
with a little Napoleon screaming in my ear with a bullhorn.

Let me add this disclaimer: He may have mellowed some lately, the only
posts I've seen of his in a year or so were when he was quoted by others,
or he changed his email addy to climb out of the killfile.
