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.

Nothing wrong with that - as long as you have a steel boat.
