Petition to Convince Ed Dolan to Stay (or Go)
"Bruce Davis" wrote in message ... I am proposing that we take an on-line poll of all readers of ARBR to determine whether we, as a group, want Ed Dolan to stay or leave. In order for this to work, we need the numerous lurkers to step forward and make your voices heard. I suspect that there are many more lurkers to ARBR than there are active posters. I also suspect that many lurkers, such as myself, primarily visit ARBR to read the latest rants from Saint Edward. Even among those of you who dislike Ed's politics or egotism, I bet you nonetheless find him entertaining; and I suspect many of you agree that this newsgroup would be a bore-fest without him. Many thanks for the kind words, Bruce. My only purpose in being here is to provide some entertainment to the troops for what would otherwise be a very boring newsgroup. I like to supply some moral instruction too for good measure. Most recumbent cyclists are elderly men who have been working class types all of their lives and have neglected their minds. All I have ever done is to cultivate my mind since I never had to work much, so why should others not benefit from my life of leisure. [...] After the posts die down in a few days or weeks, I will tally all of the responses. If we find that the majority of ARBR readers want Ed to stay, I hope he will heed the wishes of the majority. If, on the other hand, the majority of ARBR readers want Ed to go, then he can do what he was planning to do anyway, and vacate the premises. Yes, I shall sadly be leaving one of these days and then the group can go back to the way it was before I showed up. Liberals will once again take over and there will be the mindless banter among a select few. At that point the group will realize that I brought something valuable to the table that will be sorely missed. Most newsgroup are nothing but mindless banter among a self selected few. It makes newsgroups a vast wasteland. It takes time and effort to write the kind of posts that I submit which is why so few do it. But I believe every newsgroup should have a few such individuals. The besetting sin of all newsgroups is the terminal boredom of being forever on topic with mindless banter. I spared ARBR that fate for as long as I could. Regards, Ed Dolan - Minnesota |

"Al Luminium" wrote in message ... [...] Ed hasn't changed much. I don't even see his posts, except for what's quoted by a few guys (and you all know who you are) doing pointless jousts with Ed, goading him to try and keep topping himself. At least with Tom Sherman, we got a lesson in zionist politics. So forget the voting and go riding. Al, it is getting harder and harder to top myself. I am already at the God level and I don't know where to go from there. I am thinking about going in the other direction and transforming myself into the Devil. The trouble is though that I really do not know too much about evil other than what I have read in books. Besides, there is nothing more enjoyable than telling others how they should live from a holier than thou perspective. Tom Sherman was not bad by and large, but he could send me around the bend when he compared the Israeli Defense Forces to the Palestinian terrorists. He did not like being called an anti-Semite, that is for sure. -- Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

Now you see why Jim has an XXX as part of his user name. Believe me when I tell you this that anyone who is constantly referencing masturbation is heavily into it.

"Dave Miller" wrote in message ... [...] Many, like myself, decided long ago Edward is to be pitied but easily dismissed with filters. But the number of Ed responders proved too numerous , and often valuable, too kill with a filter - so we moved to BROL. If you really want to know how people feel, don't ask these last hold-outs - ask at BROL, prepare for the applause I am of two minds about BROL. It is the place to go if you want recumbent specific information all right. However, it is just way too boring and tiresome for someone like me. A newsgroup without excitement is senseless. ARBR has had its ups and downs over the years. Many of those who used to post to ARBR left the group because they did not want any outsiders to interfere with their mindless banter and liberal political comments. I got rid of that bunch and I think they are all to be found on BROL now. Many of them were retired Florida types who were into nothing but caressing one another. That was not for me as you can well imagine. The one thing that can destroy a newsgroup, any newsgroup, are criminal vandal trolls. I have always tried to add something to the group and have wanted the group to prosper, but there is no defense against criminal vandal trolls. They can take down a newsgroup in just a few weeks easily. That being the case, we should none of us come to rely on Usenet for anything important. It is for fun and games only and should never be taken seriously. All moderated newsgroups like BROL are impossibly boring. There is no excitement on them whatever. However, they are the future because they are safe and civil and more or less informational. But they are no fun. -- Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

Meaning your a fundamentalist. That makes you not much different that those from Moselm countries. You don;t know how boring and boorish you are. "that those from" ? When it comes to morality I am a fundamentalist, but when it comes to religion I am an atheist. Most morality can be based on common sense, but not all. That is why I occasionally have to resort to the moral teachings of a religion. Roman Catholicism is the preferred religion for this purpose of course. Most recumbent cyclists are elderly men who have been working class types all of their lives and have neglected their minds. All I have ever done is to cultivate my mind since I never had to work much, so why should others not benefit from my life of leisure. Hmmm that's code for you haven't been employable and are on welfare\ I have been a gentleman of leisure my entire life. You could have been too if you had not been so foolish as to marry and have children. It is not my fault that you ended up nothing but a working stiff. That was still no excuse for neglecting your mind, but I know it can be tough to feed your mind when you have a wife and children to feed.

We have already established that I am the most secure person on this newsgroup. That is why I can leave any time I so choose and never look back.

ED D. YES
ED G. NO "Bruce Davis" wrote in message ... I am proposing that we take an on-line poll of all readers of ARBR to determine whether we, as a group, want Ed Dolan to stay or leave.

So what we need every ARBR reader to do, including (especially) all of you lurkers, is to reply to this post with just a few simple words: Either: "Ed Should Stay" Or: "Ed Should Go" After the posts die down in a few days or weeks, I will tally all of the responses. If we find that the majority of ARBR readers want Ed to stay, I hope he will heed the wishes of the majority. If, on the other hand, the majority of ARBR readers want Ed to go, then he can do what he was planning to do anyway, and vacate the premises. So, after you read this, please respond with your vote. I will start the ball rolling: Ed Should Stay. --Bruce Davis |
