The Atlantic Ocean/Hur

[Guest guest]

P: Hur, what does this mile long post about the Atlantic

has to do with this list? What does 95% of Bob's postings

have to do with what the members of this list come here to read?

The time has come to ask, is Bob crazy? Does he know what he's

doing? If he knows we must conclude, he is trying to subvert and

disrupt.

Sometimes it seems with some of the regulars who post here they need

to have their own blog. As to what's relevant, I think it's also up

to the members to decide...they can point it out like yourself,

ignore it as (un)poetic madness, delete it, praise it, etc. It's a

group process and I don't have the time to be a heavy handed

moderator.

 

In the history of this group (almost at any similar group like this)

at certain periods there are some regulars who at times seem to post

excessively but this never lasts. Sooner or later everyone runs out

of gas.
