Actually there was a very extensive discussion of sp**s*ns in the early
months of Paddlewise after we left Wavelength.  With him out of the picture
with his rants, the discussion was quite lively and freewheeling with sides
taken in a cogent way.  Any reading of the exchange would have left a person
with a good idea of the pros and cons with which they could make up their
own minds about the worth of the product.  I did quite a "defense" of the
product backing up things that he had claimed (like that the US Military had
looked at them and prepared an extensive report favoring them. I saw the
report so I knew it was true.).  And I related the favorable experience of
some friends who had them preattached to their boats.  I also went into some
provisos about them as well.  The irony is that Tim, a few weeks ago, was
quoting my relatively favorable discussion of them at length on those same
newsgroups that he now brings up the murder charges. :-)
