    I saved this message as I kinda thought that it was more appropriate for
    today's date than when it ran. But the more I thought about it the more I
    feared that I might be offending a serious contributor so I decided not to do
    it.

    WAYNE AND LYNN, I see it too.

    I used to be a regular poster, now, I look through the subjects and four out
    of five day, I delete the Trawlering string of messages without reading them.

    WHERE ARE THE CRUISERS!
    We do an annual two month summer cruise, and post our Email logs to the site.
    We write for boating magazines, and carry a computer on board. We use it
    daily for E-mail and then put the computer away. I do too much of it when I'm
    at
    home or in the office.
    This list DEFINITELY has too many "arm chair boaters" speaking their mind as
    posing as experts.
    Some of the posters thankfully have been there and are REAL boater, and thank
    you for your posts, they are GREAT.
    Some just like to post like its a chat room, and seam to have no in depth
    boating expertise, sorry but its true.
    I don't stay on the list to read BS. I stay here to keep in touch with real
    boaters who are BOATERS. WHO ARE BOATING.
    I don't care if you own a ski boat, or a hatteras. A boater is a boater. I
    don't care how long you've been boating, we learn from our mistakes and from
    the
    experiences of others. I don't can if your old or your, etc, etc. Just loose
    the BS.
    I love the list. But if you want to know about an LCD TV, GO ELSEWHERE with
    your questions and your expertise.
    Sorry, but only just somewhat, to be in your face with this. And another
    thing... I don't mind seeing posts on subjects that were beat to death a year
    or
    two ago. There are new people on the list, and most of the over discussed
    subjects and IMPORTANT. And a few people still have different views.

    Simply put if you want to "CHAT" Computers, or TV's, or your favorite food,
    you might want to post elsewhere.

    Peace to the Boater.
