I agree. When I go to a hardware store I am interested in hardware, when I
go to a boating store I want to see boating items. Try going to a political
convention and insist upon discussing your Yamaha 225 problems, no way.
Most of us select a particular location due to our interest, in the hope
that the merchandise/discussions pertains to why we are there. I feel that
I am not clear in what I am saying, just tired of the mental cases that join
a boating group (or any group) and insist that they talk OT. I am sooooooo
tired of the argument if you do not like it go somewhere else. To those
that feel that way I would suggest that you find a group that is interested
in your ongoing bantering. I like this topic to hear a discussion about
boats. I know this will not change the few that insist upon boring us with
their OT discussions. Ever notice that when a topic is long that it usually
involves two or three who get caught up in the argument, forgetting the
topic. Sorry for the triad, first time. It just get frustrating. Thanks
to those that have really helped me in my boating concerns. Jim
