People have been good about editing posts, you'll need to keep it up... I broke my left arm and a bone in my right hand the other day - bad ladder technique, resulting in a fall to my driveway. Until I'm healed I won't be editing posts. Leaving in a paddlewise footer will be a guaranteed way to have a posting disappear. It's not personal, typing is difficult for the moment.

Right now, the man is typing with one hand because he fell off a ladder, and does not have time to deal with unnecessary mistakes. In addition, It's not that Kirk is a jerk, it's that the software won't allow a post with all that other stuff at the bottom. Kirk tends to this mailing list FOR FREE every dang day so we can have access to some of the best paddling info on the internet, at no charge. I know its the best because I have checked. The next best is paddling.net and you have to sort through a lot of playing around to find info there. I like playing around sometimes, but I get individual emails here and like the fact that there is less of it here. On occasion I do think that Kirk cracks the whip a TAD too much, but those occasions are rare and I will accept that in tradeoff for the good information, the contact with other paddlers, most of whom have a LOT more experience than me, and not having to deal with Yahoo, IE Spam-Central.

As the previous list-owner, I know how much thankless and unpaid work goes into this list to keep it running smoothly without ads flashing at you all over the place and the above cheap shot is not only uncalled for but downright rude. Richard, I think you owe Kirk an apology. I mean, sheesh! He's broken bones in both limbs and is still concerned about bringing you the list at *no* charge to you! :-/ Jackie *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Richard, I think you owe Kirk an apology. I mean, sheesh! He's broken bones in both limbs and is still concerned about bringing you the list at *no* charge to you! :-/ G'Day, My sentiments exactly. Suspect it was one of those emails written in haste and repented at leisure. (I've written a few like that) And thanks Kirk very much for maintaining the list in such a sensitive and effective manner. All the best, PeterO *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Have you ever had one of your posts bounce back, unposted by Kirk? What I think he is talking about is that if the system automatically bounces the post he is not going to make the effort to write to you and send it back to you. The post will simply die, unresponded to and unreturned. <<Chill, Kirk. You're letting a little power go to your head. >> Joan who has had the dubious honor of a bounced post or two. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
