Any comments? > >ralph diaz Ralph you are absolutely correct on this one.Although, it can be a good discussion for paddlers, most of the people who watch the show know nothing of kayaking. Discussing whether or not he should have been wearing a PFD will not serve any purpose except to make you look bad. Perhaps if he had died in a kayaking accident instead of an airplane, it might have made a difference. But in this case "if you can't say anything good than, don't say anything" applies and I think you made the right call.
