You said you were going to email Phil Bolger and get the full facts on
LPOS for one of his designs.

Ahem... shall I google it up for you? In any event, you didn't... or the
answer was would have proved you wrong, and so you can't admit it...



Then you were going to email an SAYRA
official and ask him about using the CSR as a safety measure.

Yes I did that. I can tell you he didn't reply -as I suspected he
wouldn't. Perhaps I should not have mentioned your name. Why don't you
email him too -after all, you claim to know him...

I don't have to, I'll speak with him next time I see him at a regatta.





IIRC
there were a few more little 'fact checking' emails you were going to
send, and post the results.

Ah, fantasy time! You mean when I asked the master of a square righged
ship master if letting sheets go would help a square rig ship stand up
(which you said would not work)? Want me to repost his answer?

Sure, if it will make you feel better. When you are so frustrated and
befuddled by life, it would be mean of me to deny your one little
triumph...if you regard it as that.

Frankly, in the case of a square rigger being knocked down, the weight &
windage of the spars & rigging are going to have a significant effect.
Letting the sheets run might help... but it might not help that much, and it
darn sure wouldn't be a cure-all.



Something about showing up all my BS.

You're doing very nicely all by yourself.

Yep.
