I read that the Peoples Republic of China now lays claim to the world's

that project were trained in the United States, but it would not
surprise me to learn some were.

I think the sun is setting on the United States for many reasons.

You may be right but that's a political statement anyway you slice it.
This is supposed to be (mostly) a boating group and past history here
is that nothing will get a food fight going faster than political or
religious pronouncements.

Don't start undoing your good work !

Political? A non-partisan observation about this country is political?
So, if I posted that "Democracy in the United States has worked well,"
that would be political?

How about, "The sun is setting on new boat sales in the United States
because of the price of fuel, the economy, and the closure of many boat
manufacturers and dealerships."

Better?

Is it political to discuss the lack of dredging in the ICW?

I thought the idea was to avoid partisan political posting.

It doesn't matter what you say here. There are some who'll find
political fault with it. Mostly, they're mean-spirited little men.

Apparently is doesn't matter what we say here, you are still stuck on
name calling...


So, you're claiming I called you a mean-spirited little man? Wow. I
was thinking of someone else, but if the shoe fits....


Can you knock it off? If me and ***** can do it, you should be able to.
When you came here a year or so ago, you said it was for boats but were
immediately consumed in the fire. Now you have a chance to join the
group you tried to join a year or so ago. Maybe you are not so motivated
as some of us, but then you don't remember how fun this boat group was a
decade ago, I do.


I'm not sure what you're talking about. What does consumed by fire
mean? Some people were obnoxious, and I occasionally responded to
that. You guys have been at this "war" for a while. Don't put it on
me.

If you don't like what I have to say, feel free to plonk me.

FYI, I don't respond to spoofers like Harry(r) if that's not obvious.
