I don't think we have anyone else from Halifax.

Are you sure about your accusation?

Only to the extent that the post was definitely from Halifax. Of that
there is no doubt.

Here is a post this evening from "rec.boats.cruising":

[Thinking] about bringing a Person 32 back from Bermuda to Halifax in
mid September. Good idea or bad given the forcasts?
======

Pearson 32s are sailboats. Don is a sailor.

Unless Don has an evil twin who is also from Halifax, and also sails,
my money is still on him.


Send your money. Yankee dollahs will do.
As much as I'd love to do a delivery like that, I tend to get seasick.
Besides, there are almost 400K people in the Halifax Regional
Municipality.... don't you think it's possible another might find and post
to this newsgroup?
(for the life of me, I don't know why)
