   Waves indicating he is drowning in a sea of despair. Funny isn't it, some   
   claimed I was only half hearted in my support for ukram lest it detract   
   from RSGBTech, which was not only the usual nonsense but, as time has   
   shown, RSGBTech continues to grow and thrive, being unfettered by poor   
   moderation and the presence of the usual rejects. Conversely RealOps really   
   needs putting out of its misery, I think it had 2 posts in Aug, one an   
   irrelevant follow up to the first, a rally notice. There may have been one   
   or possibly two other trivia posts. Frank's vanity group is no more than a   
   waste of Yahoo's facilities, he seems to have stopped trying to tell Comreg   
   what to do since the gave him a swarm of fleas in his ear  to match the   
   ones from OFCOM.
