The animal rights people don't do themselves any favours with all this off-topic posting here (in my opinion). The mixture of facts and misinformation zealously shoved in peoples faces is just a turn off for their message. Like the people who thrust leaflets in your hand when walking along the street. They just get stuffed into the next litter bin. I generally skip any such posting in the group. They don't even irritate me anymore - they are just part of the ignored background noise, along with all the bitching and infighting that goes on here. David. |

They are a lot easier to ignore than the SPAM I get, sadly. Luckily, the perp is usually easy to spot, such as Dr Someone, etc, or with a daft subject like "good news for ....". Anyway, I think on the strength of the claims of the veggiebreatharian brigade, I shall go to the kebab shop tonight :-) I have to admit that this cross posting lark puts me entirely out of sympathy with the aims of the people perpetrating it. I suspect that it's counter-productive with most people and goes straight to a kill file. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove weeds from address) 'We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.' |

It's in the title, you usually get the idea of the thread by the title. What is annoying is when an urgler respond to them just to be rude. I hardly see the point. Best to read if you want, but don't respond. If they don't get the feedback they won't post here again. I think. |

That wouldn't explain the cross postings to the food groups or sometimes, to genealogy groups.

Try google for information on all animal rights, it's like a free library right at your fingertips. Then you'll see the point of newsgroup announcements.
