I feel frustrated, but not confused. I believe it is human nature to show concern for those of us who chose to ignore or are unaware of dangerous situations. Why else do we have rescue squads for mountain climbers and other adventurers who perform foolish stunts. Some of us have been involved in daredevil activities and have survived only because of this caring trait which we share. If we survive, hopefully we can go on to educate, or in the worst case rescue others. *************************************************************************** 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/ ***************************************************************************Received on Wed Feb 23 2000 - 13:33:04 PST
