Kill File Log
Since I set my filter to delete messages with titles that include the words
Saddam, Bush, War, Americans, Frog, Blackmail, Bomb, Iraq, Boycott, and
Pope, none of which have to do with tourism travel to Europe, the number of
posts has sunk to a much more manageable level. Suddenly, rec.travel.europe
is back to people actually discussing recreational travel to Europe!
Life is sweet again.
