I'm only going to make one post on this disgusting topic.

I simply find it amazing just how many messages and obviously how much 
time some people can spend on their computer when they make it sound as 
though they're doing so very very much with so many aspects of ham 
radio.  Maybe they have 30 hours in their day as opposed to the 24 the 
rest of us have.

Frankly, I'm getting to the point that on some lists I simply delete 
specific messages when I see a particular name.

No more said from me on this.
