Although i have rarely contributed to this group over the last ten years
or so i have enjoyed reading the posts and learnt a lot from it, but its
time to call it a day.

Sadly now its seems to have become a place for a number of folks with egos
larger than your average tropical CB to rip the crap out of anyone that
they see fit and mostly for no apparent reason.

I thought the group was uk.sci.weather so perhaps some have confused it
for uk.sci.******s ?

Thanks to all those who have posted constructive and infiormative stuff
over the years, Bernard Burton, Will Hand, Southend Keith, Colin Youngs,
Darren Presscott to name just a few, it was a pleasure being part of it
all.but lifes to short for all the crap on here so now is the time for me
to leave.

Have fun and i hope you get your dream winter Will !

I fully sympathise with you and regret that (1) some ways of accessing the
group do not have the facility of killfiling, and (2) even with killfiling,
completely removing the obnoxious crap that certain individuals spew out (I
am thinking of two who are particularly active at present) is impossible
because a number of otherwise respectable contributors insist on replicating
the garbage in the course of carrying out bunfights in full public view.

They do not seem to realise that by not ignoring the crap they are very
effectively destroying the value of the group.
