Think about it OM. Suppose by chance some newcomer DOES come along.

They see one of Jonathan's whacky posts and figure, "ok, this guy is out
there but harmless."

Or they see one of your bile-tainted posts and think, "Ok, this guy is a
whack job, I'm not going to get involved."

Do I like 1/2 the people in your killfile, no.
Do I think they provide a positive contribution to the sci.space groups,
generally not.
Do I think they do as much damage as your hate-filled, bile-ridden posts,
hardly.

Until you recognize you're as much of the problem with your technique,
you're going to continue to be a part of the problem.

Actually if anything, you're worse since you DO have so much positive to
contribute. But 9 out of 10 times it's a negative, threatening, hate filled
post; not a positive post that goes into details on the proper orientation
of the direction of the Gemini hatch on the Skylab airlock module. I can
tell you which one I think most people here would rather see.
