Am I the only one that notices this?

Sure, in my case it was a hobby. Observation of aberrant thought over
time. Usenet groups the exchange of information into orderly subjects.
The original framers did not expect/anticipate the participation of
true cognitive disease getting into the forum due to the technical
nature of usenet, i.e. the bozo filter became less effective over
time. Once contaminated, the original posters abandon the group. There
never was any "science" at all on any sci group, and never will be.
