You're posting from Google. It's no wonder you're inundated with spam. Get a decent newsreader and dump Google and you'll see virtually no spam.

You're a messenger? Not likely. You're just an angry twit. As far as the number of messages? Giganews shows 141563 messages for sci.electronics.basics since early 2003. -- Greed is the root of all eBay.

I said: "You don't believe postings are now far lower to this group than what they were even two years ago?" It's now 2010, two years ago was 2008, not 2003. Even so that only works out to about 55 posts a day from 2003. Show me the stats from 2008 to the current date........So far for the month of January ( as of this post) there are only 50 posts to sci.electronics.basics. I'm not the only one who notices thi, 13 of the 50 posts have the subject line "Maybe time to shut down this newsgroup".

The message I originally responded to was posted to both groups. The same situation is apparent at sci.electronics.basics as well alt.energy.homepower. Other groups I visit on a regular basis that used to have useful informations such as alt.energy.renewable, alt. energy hydrogen etc. are now full of global warming/climate change arguments with a links to anything remotely connected with renewable energy a rarity. |
