I've sort of done that IRT Sp**s*ns , I guess... 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. :-) ralph diaz *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
