A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’t change the subject. --- Winston Churchill (among others)

I've been on Arocket for almost as long as it's been in existence.  Probably longer than some people on the list have been alive.  There's been lots of good information, and some garbage posts.  But I'm damn tired of hearing about how hydrogen is the bestest fuel, good for rockets, airplanes, fireworks(?!?!?)...probably should be a daily dietary supplement. It's almost as tiresome as listening to a certain US president...

I know, I can always delete posts.  But each such post is an annoyance, especially when the poster is a fanatic by Churchill's quote.  And with everything going on in the US right now, I certainly don't need any more annoyance in my life.

I'll miss hearing about real rocketry from people who do real rocketry (rather than those who pretend).  But the annoyance factor has finally overshadowed the utility -- at least for me; I don't know about anyone else.

And all you real rocketeers, keep plugging.  Don't blow yerself up.
