I'm still awaiting an answer, Mr. Milstead.


Daily reminders are an ineffective waste of bandwidth. Perhaps you could
issue an annual reminder instead??

Why thank you Scout! You can just go on not reading them with great
certitude that in a one year span you won't miss a thing! Bravo for you!

Many thanks Gilligan!
After two whole days of not reading in asa, I find 315 new posts. Your
idolatrous purport has nudged me just enough to do the right thing, "mark
all as read".
I am most grateful to you.

Why must everyone deride and mock the Good Captain? He is one of the few
to
think primarily of ideas, of cause and effect. He's consistently kept
this
board on track with pertinent sailing related topics and broadened it by
applying time tested truths to the world at large. I, for one, admire
the
Good Captain who disdains the fashionable for the correct and true! He
is
a
real life role model for everyone, being a principled humantarian and
philosopher. The Good Captain knows the difference between "fun" and
contentment. God Bless him.

Gilligan

I wish I knew.

Mr. Milstead,

Any idea when "the capt." might return???? Huh?

An "ineffective waste of bandwidth" in this NG. That's ripe.

Well, wish a little harder and perhaps you can make it so.

Why the mockery indeed Little buddy.

The good Capt. Neal is a diamond in the midst of a dull, gray spread
of
ashes. He offers excellent sailing advice not found anywhere else,
excellent political analysis, deep philosophical insight and all in a
deeply entertaining, unique literary style. On top of that - he does
it
for free! Normally people would have to pay hundreds, if not thousands
to subscribe to a newsletter of the same caliber of the good Capt's
writings. Of course the good Capt was doing this primarily for his own
entertainment but a second and much greater benefit is that it is for
your own good! Heed his word and you shall live a long fullfilled life
of independence as a man standing on his own two feet and not as a
knave writhing in the slop of the government trough.
The good Capt. Neal should be encouraged to write more of his musings,
when he returns, lest the be lost to the wisdom of the ages. As with
an Einstein, Thomas Jefferson, Ludwig von Mises, Edmund Rostand and
the like, great men like these only appear once or twice a century.

The swine here grovels in the mire spitting out the pearls contained
within the good Capt. advice and wisdom!!! That is why many here will
have bellies that shall drag the ground, noses that know only the
scent of decomposing earth, and eyes that see no further than the next
anthill!!

Hopefully the good capt will return in time to shore up Florida for
President Bush like he did last time.

Thanks for setting the lubbers strait.

A limp wrist also tends to limit torque.

The voltage drop on an extension cord of sufficient
length would most certainly limit the torque of any type of rotating
machinery.

Not if it's sized properly.

ask one of your students to help you.
