When Capt Neal ran this fine group people sailed more often. They would
literally throw down their keyboards and run for their boats. He was a great
motivation for all.

Back then there were less overweight people on the newsgroup. The good Capt
ran a tight ship and people stayed in line. The discussions were very
philosophic and applicable to life in general. People came from far and near
in response to the good Capt's musings. People became very excited,
sometimes before he had even spoken! Yes, he could readily fan the flames of
passion and stir the emotions!

Things started to change when President Bush gave him free government pills.
I think there was something in those pills. Today, the good Capt leads a
live of vigor and purification. He does not take the government pills. He
does not indulge in rich foods. His life is simple, yet so complete.
Everyone awaits his return.
