Tut tut, Loco don't you know that New York City is the center of the
universe? g

Really, it never ceases to amaze me how New Yorkers are so like Iowans in
assuming entire country is like their own back yard,


Actually, Dave, you have it backwards. I never assumed that docking is the same
anywhere. But Loco and Scotty and Doug simply insisted that using thimbles and
shackles (as done here) is NEVER practiced.
Now that I've proven them wrong again, they are simply attempting to redirect
the argument.
They lost.
