At least mine! I remember a few years ago when I first came across the PaddleWIse web site. I hesitated subscribing thinking the list was not for beginners like me. Sadly, I got in right after the great 'Sponson' debate, which I heard was a good broo-haha. Since then the PFD question has come up several time and I always enjoy it. Hopefully there are some new people out there hearing it for the first time. I personally like it when people get their dander up a bit. I also wish I could decide to wear my PFD for the real risk involved and not for fear of being declared a heretic on this list should something happen to me while not wearing it. As I told Scott, I figure if I was to be shot dead by a sniper out on the water, I'm sure someone will have a list of reasons why it was my own fault for igoring some risk. Say la Vee.
