No, you need one....

No, I really don't. Anyone with a functional mind and internet access can find
this out for themselves if it disturbs them in some way.

Gould lives on a diet of unsubstatiated PR releases. His post is nothing but FUD

FACT: the USCG is AGAINST the idea of a federal boater ID document.

EOD

Fact is, you stated there was a written proposal and characterized
certain statements in the proposal as emphatic.

Insulting me doesn't change the fact that you climbed too far out on
the limb and proceeded to saw it off at the trunk. The name calling
and personal attacks are usually the first refuge of a guy who knows
he has lost.

Gene and I have pointed out where the USCG commandant, as recently as
10 months ago, was calling for a national boating license.
The cite I provided quotes the head of BOAT/US concerned that the USCG
is providing "conflicting information".

If you have anything except pure speculation or hearsay to back up
your position, please post it.

Trust me, "trust me" just doesn't cut it these days. :-)
