I don't understand the above. Have both lists become campaign tools only? I
had thought they were lists for public participation.
No I don't have an axe to grind but you attacking Nabo when we are all
supposed to be working together doesn't help.
This list and uk. rec have many comments attacking BW but are not accused of
BW bashing. Nabo criticises BW and immediately they are BW bashing. Nabo is
in existence to improve waterways for the boater, if that means saying what
is wrong that is what it should be doing.

Didn't know we had a war. I admire what you are doing and I know how
difficult it is. I am on your side.

None here, emails are such a limiting way of communicating.
