It has been a topic of intrigue even on the other List Server and served as a wonderful distraction from the bantering and ranting over sponsons and the Sponson Man.

We all get the same volume of traffic on the subject and I have accepted the wonderful technique of exercising my delete finger and the topic mysteriously goes away if I am no longer humored by it. Sure beats the sponson rants, lest we forget? Best Regards, Philip Next to the Continental Divide where the specific gravity of the Rocky Mountains make them too heavy to serve as Ballast Rocks as they would sink a Kayak. Then you would need sponsons for sure. ===================================================================== Ky Stratton wrote: > > geezz... I thought this was fun.
