supposed to dip them in salt water anually cos there something to do
with that.

Can anyone help.


Thanks


The rec.ponds folks have moved to Google Groups. Just search Google for
the moderated group which is 'ponds' business as usual without the trolls
in this Usenet version.

Hi "Mad"

Actually, rec.ponds.moderated is still a usenet group, but a few
NSP's have been reluctant to carry it because there is already a
"ond" group. People should update their newsgroup list, and if they
still don't find "rpm", then they should continue to ask their NSP to
start carrying it.
In the meantime, Google does carry all the usenet groups, and
so they do in fact also carry rpm. So a person with questions can
access rpm through Google. The only problem is that many of us feel
that the Google interface leaves a LOT to be desired.
All persons are invited to participate in rpm through Google, but
they must understand that their words, attitude and behavior are
moderated, and any troll-like behavior will not be permitted. But if
a person is really into ponding, he or she will find rpm to be a
wonderful group to be a part of.

Thanks for the followup Ron


Even the rec. pond troll would be welcome if he would just grow
up and change his attitude. He is a real expert in many ponding
areas, and he would be most welcome if he could just let go of the
boulder on his shoulder.

Isn't going to happen. Anyone affiliated with bobandcarole and the phoney
pedo idiots in alt.support.boy-lovers where goofy here hangs out,
that are trying to profit from doing nothing but harassing folks isn't
worth the time it took to type your invitation. Killfile the goof like
I did and the world's a better place.

thanks again for the update..
