In common with many other NGs around the world, this one has been
blighted by posts from Mike Crowe over a period of many years. Crowe
very rarely provides any sort of helpful input, even though he claims
to an "expert" on just about every subject under the sun!

He is generally argumentative, and is also a liar, having in the past
wrongfully accused others of being child molesters, and then posting
address details all round the net.

I get the feeling that if Crowe was ignored entirely by all regular
users of this and the other groups he posts to, he would in the end
tire of posting, and perhaps use the apparently considerable amount of
free time he has, in a more positive manner, such as helping out with
the IOW library service, which is now being run by volunteers.

Crowe suggests he never alters his posting name, so very simple to
kill-file him, and have no need to ever read his posts. However
sometimes there is a very amusing response to his drivel, so might be
worth avoiding use of the kill-file so you can have a giggle?

unbelievable! He must have a 2 foot diameter sphincter at least (to
allow the shoulders to follow the head)."
