I don't know of anybody on Usenet who has gotten to show off their
sense of humor more than Brad.  Do you think it possible that there
might be funnier people than Mr. Templeton out there?  

^RHF is _funny_.

To you, maybe.

^Brad created it because he was sick of rec.humor,
^and RHF has become wildly popular.

And lots of us are sick of Brad.  We should create our own Brad-less
group, huh?

Besides, you miss the point of the whole discussion (have you read
any of it?).  Almost no one is saying that "Brad isn't funny"; the
argument is related to Brad's attempts at such stunts as compilation
copyrights and making money from books and gateways to commercial
groups.  If we can find someone just as funny as Brad without these
controversial urges, Brad should be replaced.  Or if Mr. Templeton
would renounce such acts, he should be allowed to continue; if not,
then he's outta here.
