Agreed! Some of the Google users can't be bothered to quote, so often
times the replies make no sense to readers having no point of reference.
I've noticed posts from Google often get broken or disconnected from
the original thread, too.

The other problem is that's where most of the SPAM originates. Idiots
trolling for dates, for example. That's another reason Google fails as
a newsreader. There's no way in Google to delete crap like that in
Google. Me, I can just hit the delete key and boom! The post is gone.
If it's a repetitive troller it's easy enough to set up a quick filter.

And of course, there are the Google Groupers who can't seem to read the
date on a post before they reply. They don't quote and they're replying
to something posted 20 years ago. Leaves the rest of us scratching our
heads, what are you talking about? LOL
