Re: [PUP] PUP on fire

Georgs,

You must be tickled pink with the traffic on PUP lately. Nothing like a
bit of the normally subterranean emotion raising its head to get the
juices flowing, and delaying the grim reaper gaining some new victims
for awhile.

No more flames from me as you requested if you promise to moderate out
the destructive inflammatory comments made by some people who wish to
hurt someone, or something, without it being fairly substantiated
openly.

I founded the "N55 Heads Up Report" on behalf of the N55 owners, which
has now 3400 postings from 38 members in just over 2 years. It is jammed
packed with enormous take home value. I prefer to allow the normal run
of the mill emotion/expression from members. Why? Because that's just
the way life is. Got kicked off the Nordhavn Owners Site because it was
against free speech and expression. I feel contented as a result, but
believe Milt has a different style now. Those too confronted by their
preciousness usually drop off, and are usually never missed I've found.

This all started because someone dropped a bag of Dog dooies on NZ as a
place to go. Unconscionably unfair to say the least and very political.
Poor old NZ can't even defend itself. Maybe Scott Flanders could chip in
here though on their behalf as he has been there awhile. If of course
Denis the Menace is really a Kiwi, he will have a thick skin seeing it
came from an Aussie which is de rigueur.

The days of mainly fluff just appearing on PUP, allowing it to be
hijacked by some Richard Craniums (Ronnie, like my reformation already?)
can easily come to an end, but you have to stoke the fire a bit now and
again to get the real folk involved. It's just called passion. Ever
watch Dr Phil and Oprah?
Do you censor out any PAE criticisms by the way?

Your friend deep in the Antipodes.

Peter

PS I received more letters of encouragement for my views from your
underground members, than you had postings yesterday by the way. Give
these people a reason to be reinvolved please.
