    With luck.. this thread has brought some enjoyment to everyone reading their
    emails.

    Some of the posts have been great !
    I've been smiling every time I dialed in to check MY email

    I started this thread to provoke a discussion of the relative merits of
    different ways of outfitting a boat. Not to have myself, or others seriously
    judge others.
    (mind you.. a good old... PBBBFT !!! is acceptable in my book)

    You can't have a true discussion if people avoid voicing differing opinions.
    Unfortunately sometimes people can get angry when forced to defend/question
    their way of thinking.
    jeez...I hope the thread doesn't go that direction in any serious way... :(

    Ban things ? Well it's not like I was 100% serious....
    At least not in my 1st post in this thread.....

    Best Regards,
    Roy

    P.S.
    Coming up with stringent standards to prevent noise and environmental
    pollution, in the marine world we have chosen to enjoy ? fine by me.. <grin>
    Banning HTML email and email advertising ? please do...

    Hmm... then again....you know....... banning all boats except engine-less
    wooden sailboats with no electrics would make the marinas and harbours less
    crowded.... <BIG GRIN>

    Cheers all ! I need to drop the hook for the night.
