ROOKIE KOOK OF THE YEAR
The winner is...GUNNER ASCH!
Speach.... SPEACH!!!!!
============= Protest:
#1. Gunner may be many things but he is not a rookie.
#2. While many of political/social/economic Gunner's views are not "mainstream," they are at least logical and consistant, which is more than you can say about most politicians and pundets.
#3. Gunner is valuable contributor to these newsgroups when actual metalworking/cnc items are discussed.
IMNSHO there are several other frequent AMC posters/trolls far more deserving of this "honor."

I don't think it has much to do with AMC at all. He's too stupid or lazy to keep out of the kook groups, which is where he got noticed for the awards he keeps piling up.
