The Cleveland Clinic has been ranked #1 for hospital quite a few times.
On the other hand (which should be Andrew Bee Chung), he HAS won a few of the kook awards.
Bob - 19 Jul 2006 19:18 GMT Thanks for the site. Have just switched over. I found that I could not "kill" fast enough all the OT postings here.

David Rind - 20 Jul 2006 00:02 GMT > You have to use your kill filters to use most Usenet newsgroups. This one > still works, but newbies don't stay. I don't think it really solves anything to use killfiles. Various posters have chased away most of the informed people who might choose to read and post here.
While using a killfile will limit one's own personal exposure to certain posters and OT posts, it doesn't improve the general loss of community in smc. It's unfortunate, but for the most part this newsgroup is dead.

No such thing as either unfortunately or fortunately when there is no such thing luck (Proverbs 16:33).
Only the LORD can give you a discerning heart.

All thanks and praises belong to the LORD, Whom I love with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength.

It's unfortunate, but for the most part this newsgroup is dead. You make a valid point, but Jim and I have both participated in another group that was just a much a mess years ago. Then the miscreants left, got bored, whatever, and now it's a quiet little support group, with immediate helpful responses to newbies who are no longer scared off.
Just takes maintaining a presence and a stubborn streak.

I found it very interesting to be able to discuss studies as they were announced, knock around a variety of viewpoints, and see the opinions of others, some of whom were informed and interesting to read. Usenet provides a unique opportunity to mix it up with professionals of various stripes, non-professionals who sometimes have better grasps on some issues than the professionals, etc. It's a shame that its openness makes it an easy target for abuse.
As Susan says, it isn't dead, though. It is just taking a break. -- Jim Chinnis Warrenton, Virginia, USA

There must be a special place in hell for all those miscreants poking sharp sticks at a person who's so clearly very ill. At least, I hope there is.
They, not he, prevent this group from functioning as it once did.

I found it very interesting to be able to discuss [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > There must be a special place in hell for all those miscreants poking > sharp sticks at a person who's so clearly very ill. The entire Muslim world apparently concluded that Abdul Rehman's faith in LORD Jesus Christ was clearly the product of mental illness and so they spared his life.
It seems you share their belief.
> At least, I hope there is. Curious that you would hope for your own demise.
> They, not he, prevent this group from functioning as it once did. Without the regular participation of a cardiologist, this group would indeed be dead.
You will be in my prayers, dear Susan.

Unfortunately, a single person misbehaving not only hurts the signal to noise ratio in a group, which chases some people away, but also draws others into the fray, which makes things even worse. When you combine this with crossposting to groups where people really have no clue what is happening in smc, it's possible for a very small number of people to destroy an unmoderated ng.
That said, I do find it odd that people will simultaneously state that they believe someone to be mentally ill and then viciously and repeatedly attack him.

Not when NG has been blessed by LORD GOD Almighty as SMC has been.
Now ASD on the other hand can be destroyed.

Oh silly boy, will you do it with your pagan use of "chi" that you have been touting of late? You don't control the internet or any part of it.
