The number of CHINK spam ads is in inverse proportion to the number of
astronomical posts. Once astro posts reach about 20 per day, the spam ads
disappear. You'll see this on most forums.

Not likely.

For that to happen, the spammers would have to actually read all the
groups to which they post.

More unlikely, they'd have to care.

"CHINK:" rhymes with "PLINK."


And books with cooks and cookes. :-)

Derogatory terms have always been used to dehumanise those one
despises. The standard training for those going to war (or even in
sport) is to find a name which sums up your enemy in the worst
possible light. Often as a simple play on words or a corruption of the
name of your "enemy".

Roman Paedophilic Church... for example. If one pretended to be a true
Christian fighting centuries of injustice for the innocent child. Not
to mention the countless AIDS and sexually transmitted disease
infected rape victims of the churches' local debt collector,
paedophile network.

Plink or plonk.
It makes you think.
The RP Church stinks.

Don't suppose you'd care to post any astro articles, ****head?

Now about that new Orion $50 FunScope 76mm Reflector Telescope,
maybe compared to the $50 Celestron FirstScope. Any comments on them?

Your racist quip aside, the problem has to be laid at Google's feet.
Google purchased dejanews.com some years ago with the promise that they
intended to preserve the usenet legacy as an archival knowledge source.
Apparently,

Google no longer feels it is cost effective to use spam filters. As a
result for their web based usenet portal. As a result, web based
browsing of usenet is effectively dead. The only way it is useable is
to adopt a newsreader that supports slrn filtering.

My speculation is that Google now wants usenet to die as a business
strategy because they want the bandwidth to resell services to high-end
mobile phone owners with a greater willingness to pay. This does not
bode well for Google's recent gaining of control over the rights to
digitally distribute books. Will Google online books get up one morning
and make the decision that Chaucer is "not cost effective" to keep on
their book server?

In a society in which health "insurance" companies deny treatment to
sick people because they judge the person's dollar value to be too low
(infants, children, low-income people, mothers who don't work outside
the home, non-whites, retired persons) it doesn't strain the
imagination to envision Google declaring that Chaucer has no value.

Sounds like typical, made-in-China garbage. Parents who'd buy their kid a
$50 telescope probably spend the rest of their money on crack, cigarettes
and beer.

Uh huh. Kind of like blaming the gun for shooting someone and not the
shooter.

I got one, but not for viewing, but for all
the outreaches I do at schools. Between that,
and the Galileoscope, they make excellent indoor
presentation tools !!! Great for young kid's to
paw all over.

Never looked through mine, but hundreds of kid's
have played with it indoors.

Worth it for that alone !


And BTW, the Chinese made Meade UWA eyepieces are
very nice............
