This group is awesome!
For sanity, try searching just for new threads:

I've been a lurker on various audio forums for several years.
Having just discovered this group, I have to say that I don't
think I've ever seen anything like it. It is probably the most
active newsgroup I've ever seen, with obviously many audio enthusiasts
posting regularly, and yet it seems that only about 5% of the
posts themselves are actually about audio! For the past 2 or 3
days I've found it surprisingly diverting.
The thread on turntables is possibly the exception in that it
has appeared to have a *moderately* normal amount of discussion
mixed in with the fighting. Other threads have seem to rarely have
anything to do with the original post, almost immediately. It may be
the most fundamentally disfunctional newsgroup I've ever seen. And
I'm hard-pressed to point to any one person at fault... it's like
a sort of "reverse groupthink".
Anyhow, I've never seen fit to post something like this before.
Just thought I'd share an observation from a perspective of outsider-
looking-in. Perhaps in a couple of days I'll tire of it and
who knows, maybe I'll be inspired enough to post a sort of
"so long and thanks for all the fish" message. But for now,
I'm intrigued enough that I just had to share. I'm also a wee bit
tempted to say something like: "what d'yall think of Bose?" just
to see what happens.
