I don't claim to know what motivated Kerry to decide to do it 'cause I
wasn't in his campaign headquarters, either.

Well put yourself in his handlers' shoes.

That requires experience, a paycheck, and half a damn to give about John
Kerry in the first place, none of which I possess.

Which of course completely explains why you can't figure out why people were
rebutting his claims he made about his four months of service in Vietnam.

That's my point. Being a veteran is extremely honorable, but not all
veterans
are honorable, and it certainly doesn't necessarily make you a better
politician, or meat cutter, etc.

That doesn't give people license to falsify, distort or question that
person's demonstrated military career. Ever.

Who was falsifying? Please explain.

Assuming "POL" some sort of shorthand for politics, why would you need
that when the subject is "McCain in '08?" Just curious.

When you look at all of the new posts that come in, it shows up. Sure, I
could write a new filter just for the current thread, but tomorrow it will
be another thread that pops up, and a new filter to write. You put POL for
politics in the subject line and I, and all of the other people (that are
too numerous to mention) that are sick of seeing politics taking over
threads, don't have to read the vile filth and lies that nobody will refrain
from posting.

You really never have seen this kind of thing before, have you?

I haven't seen the new convention before. When did it start?

It has been discussed the last couple days. Where have you been?

Be courtious, and play along. It does not take very long to do.


Hey, you didn't include POL in the subject line! g

The first telephone POL.

Right. So how should we manage posts about subject line conventions?

When you reply to a post, if POL is not yet in the subject line, navigate
your cursor up to the subject line location, and after the put in "POL"
and you are done, and can go back to blasting whoever wants to play with
you.

Some other filter keywords are OT for off topic. FS for for sale, for a
personally owned aviation item, only. Some disagree with this being
allowable... In some aviation groups, ZZZ for Zoom (Jim Campbell) JJJ for
Juan Jimienez, one of zoom's lackeys. I can';t remember if we added REL for
religion, or not.

Thanks for your future cooperation.

How do you propose to assure that periodic notices are posted? That
