What With! and Why!" of kayaking? Maybe there should be a list of headings so there was some consistency? Possibly also a length limit? Obviously it should only include volunteers. Any ideas/opinions! If four or more people request this sort of data and Jackie is happy with it, I'ld be glad to act as a collection point and collate. It would be a different email address though. Wasn't Sandy doing something similar at one stage? PS Jackie, I've finally worked out how to do paragraphs and line spacing properly in HTML ! Will practice on the towing thread ! All the best, PeterO (Ombri is the Spanish for many Osmans :~) *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************

However, she was looking over the AOL for Dummies book while lounging on the deck of Carnival's IMAGINATION! (I'm trying to work out how to do the Home Page which they assure me is super easy!)
