Sorry to see that you are spamming again Jay. You go back on my "list".
Vaughn Golly, does this mean you can't make it? It's an announcement of FREE BEER for all. (Does anyone remember the furor THAT caused here a few years ago? Larry Dighera, where are you now?) If that is "SPAM", well, I'm guilty. Sue me. BTW: We're already sold out for the night, so I gain nothing by inviting more people. It's just a helluva lot of fun...and THAT is what it's all about. Hope to see some of you guys in IOW! :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

If I wasn't (and I am) about 1800 miles to far away to accept your offer... damn! Free beer is considered a spam? Where do these people live ? Have a great weekend |

I see a very dedicated aviator inviting fellow aviators to join him for fun and relaxation prior to going on to Oshkosh. It just so happens he owns a hotel (which I want to visit sometime), and provides the opportunity for others to join him. He even provides some amenities for free. Give the guy a break. I find Jay just being a great open fellow. As a side, I am very glad that he has been successful with his hotel. I still remember him asking questions from the group on how he should proceed in building this hotel and his changing careers. It was very interesting. Go for it, Jay and keep it up. Maybe someday we can meet up. -- Regards, Ross C-172F 180HP Sold ![]() KSWI |

No worries -- we've made it through tornadoes, ice storms, 500-year floods, and the worst economy since the 1930s. We won't let someone like Vaughn put a damper on our enthusiasm for aviation and our fellow aviators! Hope to see you in Iowa some day, Ross... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Iowa City was just a little too far off the road with the time we had left to get home. I guess I should have taken the Skyhawk instead of driving. that would have been my last big X-country before having to sell my plane. I'll be there sometime. -- Regards, Ross C-172F 180HP Sold ![]() KSWI |

Notwithstanding that he'd yonks ago commented on me with a suspicion that my origins probably naturally elicit where he comes from - and he wasn't the only either, tbh, I couldn't concur with you more. Jay has hardly been anything but dedicated and genial, not to mention composed in the face of Bertie's persistent tripe. The cove's website containing videos is a treat as well. I wish his Pool Party a garrulous success )Ramapriya |

Go for it, Jay and keep it up. Maybe someday we can meet up. Hey, all. Before I left the industry to be a full-time pilot and flight instructor, I was a network and usenet abuse policy administrator for many years. I have been aware of Jay's business and activity for many years. For whatever that's worth, it was up to me to decide what to do with complaints about posts such as Jay's. Here's how my sysadmin team would evaluate this: "Spam" is unsolicited BULK material send to multiple off-topic forums or e-mail addresses. The term does not apply here unless he's spamming to, say, alt.binaries.kittens or ca.politics also. "UCE" is Unsolicited Commercial E-mail but can also be applied to other forums such as usenet. The Rolex spam is UCE, and if Sporty's advertised here it would be as well because they're not active in the forum otherwise. Jay is an active participant of the forum announcing topical activity that happens to have a commercial element. He's not flooding the newsgroup with it, ie, posting excessively. He responds to posts and complaints about it personally. He's using the forum as a bulletin board to announce his activity to his usenet acquaintances and the general community. He's been around here for a long time and is one of the most regular users. As such, he flies right through any reasonable abuse policy criteria. Folks, the respectful use of newsgroups as a marketplace and bulletin board is far more appropriate and vital to the community than flamewars and bickering. As a reader here for over a decade, I'm much more interested in learning about a potential gathering of like-minded subscribers for an airshow than I am in people flaming each other over the validity of the post. Flaming and bickering about the validity of Jay's posts is off-topic. It seems to happen every time he mentions Alexis Park Inn based on the misconception of what constitutes usenet "spam." I would prefer a truce, because I think there are countless more important things to get fired up about. Have a great time at Oshkosh, everybody. Fly safe!
