[kj] The Pete West Show

[ade]

Ha! Oddly enough, I didn't actually reply to more than one or two of
Westy's mails & then only with insults! I was mainly debating with Jim.

In fact, I rarely tussle with him these days, but I suppose the odd one
stands out. I usually delete everything, but the veil subject happens to
interest me.

Look, people can see me as wanting to 'shut Westy up' if that's where
we're at, but really, I don't like banning *anything*. But I think the
list is better when he's away & so I'm convinced that's the best route!

Spot on, Neil. The really tedious nit-picking debates do require PW and at
least one other person. The people (you know who you are, Ade and Jim!) who
are most vocal in their irritation with him also help to generate the most
traffic by arguing.

Me? I don't care. I don't block anyone, but I do delete a lot of posts
depending on the author and/or the thread.

you all seem surprised that he keeps posting.

show, and I didn't join for that. I had three good years, but it's been
downhill since then and there's just no point in me being here any more. He
stifles any intelligent discussion on the list, and justifiable insults
aren't    much of a replacement.

3    years now, and his routine has not changed in the slightest, so I don't
even    think that works. If anyone gets around to banning him, I might come
back (if    someone could kindly let me know!), but for now there's not much
point in    remaining a member of what used to be one of the finest internet
communities    I've ever been involved in.
