Steve Holtzman:

I usually like the open forum but this thread is getting way too technical
for me.

Doesn't anybody paddle for fun anymore?

Me:

This discussion does not require paddling.  It's an armchair thing.  Can you 
imagine paddling alongside someone talking this stuff?  Paddling IS fun.  
This discussion is a different kind of fun.

For some people.

I guess.

Maybe.

Oh, that was a wonderful attempt at disparaging other people's
interests in paddling.

I hope you feel good about that.  Any other cold water you want to
throw in people's faces, or are you done for now?

Geez, just because you don't enjoy technical discussions is no reason
to say no one should.  And it IS on topic for Paddlewise.  Get used to
it.  I realize that math and science makes you uncomfortable, but
please don't tell the rest of us what we may or may not enjoy.

I do enjoy paddling alongside of someone talking about this "stuff".
And you can stuff your opinion of that, too.

Well if you were out paddling then you would not be at the computer to read
all this :) besides some people can talk or type for hours on what most of
us would spend a few minutes at most on. Personally my paddle don't seem to
do much of what they are talking about anyway
