What an absolutely depressing newsgroup

After many years, I still love the music from the 60s. I was in my teens
at that time and the music still lives in my mind. Particularly when I
ran an underground 60's radio station for a while, back in the day.
I came to this newsgroup thinking it would be filled with 60s music
history, links to MP3 oldies, and videos, and people talking about their
favorite oldies.
I began to read this group. I quickly killfiled one abuser who was using
the group to post politics. After getting rid of that person's posts, I
read about 20 posts, and out of them, 19 were about the performers from
the 60s dying. Only one was interesting.
How absolutely depressing.....
Before unsubscribing, I thought I'd post this.....
Oh please Georgie, give us another chance?

We are so grateful for all the kewl stuff you have posted here.

And of course you being a usenet savant know that binaries have not been
allowed on usenet groups in close to 20 years, right?

Oh and your killfile comment is so 1990's. Did you get a chance to read
up on President Clinton's latest sex scandal?

We are all so sorry you are depressed and upset about politics.

Perhaps you should grow up and get a set of tiny balls to go with your
tiny brain.

Bet they didn't cover this...

On her new album cover, Kesha looks like she's going for the one:
