Signed up today as a new member and am sending following profile (for
Peter Osman to post?).  Look forward to participation.

c) KAYAKS
    -Seda Impulse (deluxe FG) 18' x 21" (my favorite single)
    -Seda Tango (kevlar) 21'x29" tandem (due to arrive 3/01 - to race

e) SPECIAL INTERESTS: Kayaking, kayaking and more kayaking, sea kayak
racing (currently 8-12 mis.)

f) SPECIALIST KNOWLEDGE: Safety/industrial hygiene/environmental
professional - 25 years in industry, consulting and now, insurance.

g) STRONG OPINIONS: Love my AT Xception crankshaft paddle - pricey, but
does wonders for my carpal tunnel.  Need improved paddler access points
in some parts of the country - no lake or section of waterway should be
totally private.

h) MOST INTERESTING TRIP: Somes Sound (up the middle of Mt. Desert Isl.
- only fjord in continental US) - Actually, I can't remember anyplace
I've paddled that wasn't interesting in some way or another.

i) BIO: Age: 50, married, two daughters.  Live in Cecil County,
Maryland, at the head of the Chesapeake Bay and the most rural county on
the I-95 corrider between Washington and Boston.
