For the record, I do not *hate* guitars, dogs, horses, beer, movies or

But after all, it *is* a boating news group, and the farther we stray
from boats the worse the signal to noise ratio.


Exactly.... the more one person posts about their favourite past time... eg
motorcycle racing, the more others will be tempted to post about anything &
everything but boating.
Maybe that "over there" place could be reserved for all non-boating posts.
