It's interesting to download the first few Paddlewise digest archives, which reflect some of the early hassles and genuine concerns about walking out on Wavelength and setting up Paddlewise -- and some of the frank discussion about sponsons that went on after there wasn't a drumfire of spam. I think the instructions on how to get the archived digest articles are on the web page. I know I used it last fall, and had some trouble with it, but can't find the e-mail transactions involved -- a new computer is part of the problem. -- Wes *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
