AndyMan 7 #4 June 30, 2002 Quotewhat is trolling? Quite literally, it's a fishing technique. Hang your hook over the stern of the boat while retuning back to the dock.... hoping for a bite. Here, it's making a post hoping people will "bite" with a heated response. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
