Hey All-
Since I'm the one who got this thread going, I feel
like maybe I ought to step in and clarify just what I
intended by it and especially what wasn't intended. It
certainly wasn't intended to set any one group against
another or to stir up any sort of animosity, however
mild. I had hoped-and I think I did it-to stir up some
debate and activity on the list and maybe get us all
to thinking about what the boundaries of our little
corner of the fishing world consist of.
And yes, I'm for free speech and free fishing and free
beer but all in moderation and with good sense and
tolerance for all. =:>}
Merry Christmas and Happy Fishing to All.

The River-
You passers-by, who share my journey,
You move and change,I move and am the same;
You move and are gone, I move and remain.
