I just love it when some newbie appears out of the blue, telling the =
general [population what their personal expectations of the ng are, and =
why everyone else is wrong. Most of the regulars you see posting here =
have been supporting this ng for years. I've been here 7-8 years and =
have seen the likes of gshirley come and go, time and again, because =
they can't play the game by the rules. They have to have it all their =
way. You can tell what type of sailors these newbies a They're the =
ones that insist that they have the right-of-way, no matter what. =
They're the ones that sail through regattas, making it a point to rant =
and rail at the racers for having the audacity to get in their way. =
Well, gshirley, we've seen the likes of you before, and I'm sure we'll =
see more like you in the future. In the long run, though, you won't be =
here in another 7 years, but we will still be posting to this ng.
