Hi,
Maybe I am wrong, but I can't remember any Portuguese conversation on
this group, some in Spanish (without any disregard word, to make it clear).
Like Perry Jones said, I have failed experiences trying to join some French
language groups too. My current French group, with 258 members, had not a
single message through 3 weeks !!
Although, if peoples wish to create a separate Spanish group about
nautical matters, thats just fine to me. Then, please, just send me a path
to wagner@XXX.XXX ,and I will sign up it and try to improve my
knowledge about this important idiom.
But I heard some wisdom words from Anthony Day, Dennis K. Biby, Denece
and from another fellow too. Then, I was thinking with myself: It is really
necessary ??
Making use of this, I wanna wish to you (again) a merry christmas and
new year with a plenty of realizations and friendly winds !!
