I thought the windsurfer capital is on the inland side of Cape Hatteras National Seashore. Windsurfers go there regularly and it is noted for its high winds.

Without its winds, we would never have been able to now sit long hours waiting for planes to take off. ralph Jackie Fenton wrote: > > > From: "Brian H." <bheifner_at_Rational.Com> > > > That sports channel was wrong.
