    Wally,
    Consider that some of us are a little more reserved than you and wrote our
    letter without adding to the public "rant" on the list !?
    I enjoy the Florida Atlantic coast including the beautiful Titusville area
    and hope that all of Florida continues to encourage all types of boating.
    I have found that a respectful letter asking for help is received better
    than one that threatens.
    BTW...I won't be reporting back to you as to the content or delivery of my
    request to Melbourne officials.
    To each his own........
