My growing familiarity with PaddleWise has obviously decreased my perceived risk of what may occur when posting to this list. Simple lurking is perhaps far safer, but not nearly as much fun and I think not as informative. In all seriousness, thanks to all of you who replied to my questions on learning to roll. Mark J.
