    Hey guys,

    I was about to drop out of this list until I read the latest. Now it's
    getting fun. Thanks for the tongue-in-cheek response. We can take ourselves
    too seriously...or, we can not.

    Know how to do it properly and then do it any way you chose--rubbishly or
    simply.

    It's much like my step-father always insisting we use the correct
    terminology, as if the words made the sailor instead of the doing. Finally,
    my cousin--the best sailor I've ever met, totally intuitive, can sail any
    boat into any place without an engine--asked me if I'd like to "drive" his
    boat (not "take the tiller" or "take the helm" as my step-father would have
    said). The scales fell off--I was free.

    Blessings,
    Normandie
