Michael said: I recently proposed on a local mailing list in Florida that if the paddling community in the state proactively wrote, proposed and lobbied for its own registration bill, we could ensure that the idiots in the legislature would not eventually impose a nonsensical one of their own on us and that in this way we might even be able to limit the cost and ensure that we would get some actual benefits from it. and I believe that we must all pay a fair share of taxes at all levels. When it comes, (as it surely will), I will cheerfully pay the registration fee and then demand fair representation. Geez, Michael, Pro-active, sensible, being willing to lead, attempting to organize for the greater good, willing to pay taxes, concerned about your fellow human beings. What in the world were you thinking??? Where would we be if the planet was filled people like you? People like me, who work in the criminal justice system, would be unemployed, for one thing! One can only imagine........ and hope..........
