And now a note from your friendly list moderators... This is a boating list, lets do our best to keep the topics relevant. There are many forums out there for this type of discussion. I am a huge proponent of free speech and hate censorship so it is not my intent to suppress anyone. However free speech does come with responsibility. Think about your audience and the purpose of the forum. We are here to discuss boating related topics. And yes, you can make the argument that this is boating related but we have strayed from relevance to the forum. And we are all smart enough to know we are using the "boating related" argument a bit heavy here. This is no longer relevant, it has been discussed in the past many times and is tired now. And when it gets personal, move it to a personal email thread, no need to beat chests in a public forum for everyone else the watch. We are not interested in the personal attacks, we just want to talk boats.
Time to move on. Back to boats and living aboard boats. Sam On 7/7/10 7:54 AM, Marce Schulz wrote: > Can we just let this drop?
