I had ALMOST finished my post telling you about "different answers", "there
is no dumb question" etc, when Jimmy's landed in my Inbox... so writing
that
was apparently a waste of time.
But Ima, there is one thing that Jimmy didn't say. As mentioned, there are
more than 500 people on the list... but a high percent of them are passive
and just read. When you ask a question, the answer(s) you'll get will reach
also them. Among that amount of people, you can be sure that there are
others who have been wondering about the same thing as you... but haven't
asked about it. Simply: You will not be the only one benefitting from the
answers. (Feel good about asking a question as you will do other people a
favour.)
Stay subscribed and have a blast
Learn a lot and do it fast

Ämne: [VFB] Ima, give the VFB a Chance!
Ima, I saw your post yesterday, but didn't get around to answering you.
If I or others had, you'd never have sent the post this morning about
unsubscribing. First off, this is a fly fishing / fly tying list. You
can ask any question about either and one of our 500 + members will give
you a good answer to your problem. Sometimes you'll get several
different answers, but they'll all work. We on the VFB list learn from
each other. Many of us have been members since the list started and as
such have forged some great and long lasting friendships. Several of us
have been able to meet each other at fly and fishing shows around the
country and some have been fortunate enough to fish together. We also
love to kid each other. We call it banter. :-P I know that this
banter back and forth and seemingly "beating a dead horse" at times with
similar posts bothers you, but that is what keeps our list fresh. I
belong to two other fly fishing email lists and both are DULL because
nothing is allowed except technical talk. We VFB'ers subscribe to the
philosophy that "all work and no play makes Jack or Jill a pretty dull
person." So, give it a few more days, and above all ASK SOME
QUESTIONS, and remember, there is no dumb question. If you don't know
the answer, the only way you'll get it is to ask. You said in your
original post that you were doing research. I'd like to ask what kind of
research. Many of us can probably help you and would certainly like to.
JUST ASK ! I've hosted over a dozen swaps and will kick one off
toward the end of September as the trout season begins to wind down.
You'll have ample opportunity to join in my and several other swaps
that will begin.
Now, How can I help You?
JIMMY D
P.S. If you really want to unsubscribe, go to virtualflybox.com and look
on the left of the page and click on "email list" and follow the
directions, same as you did when you joined the VFB
