I know several brothers in my chapter who used to be on this list but
found it tedious to keep up with the numerous posts on the same
subject(s), ie. beating a dead horse. Also, when people on this list

that you are some knuckle-dragging, woman-beating heathen(or at least
that's the way it feels to me.
