[Paddlewise] Great list

I've been following Paddlewise for about a year now, and I have to say,
it's been a good year.

I just recently signed on to the Macgregor-Venture list, tied in with my
new boat, and I'm about to sign off of it. Flaming. People blithly
attaching huge JPGs. This weekend, someone dropped a 978 kb WAV file onto
the list -- it took my mailer a long time to chew that up at 14,400 baud.
People copying messages whole, sometimes four or five replies deep.

Go though an experience like that and you realize just how good a place
this is, and how good a job our listmom does in keeping everything moving.
Every mailing list I've ever signed onto pales by comparison to this list.
We've got a lot of knowledgeable people on here that know their stuff, and
aren't afraid to help out a newbie. We may have our differences, but we can
discuss them like adults.

So, I just wanted to say, "Great going, Jackie", and "Great going,
Paddlewisers."

-- Wes
