Default Colregs Questions; BORING!

Thom Stewart wrote:
Jeff,

Any Discussion or Thought that keeps the Mind OPEN is a worthwhile
thing.


Yup.

Anything; even good things, that get stuck in a Rut need to be
freed!


If people keep responding, especially if they vary what they're
talking about, why do you think its stuck in a rut? Since you didn't
respond to any of them, or any of the "seamanship questions,"
obviously this stuff doesn't appeal to you. But clearly others enjoy
them.


It's something Neal has forgotten in his Retirement. He was the one who
developed vivacity in the ASA. It's what makes us a different sailing
discussion group. I've liked it. It's something we should all be aware
of and not let it get lost.

I think the Colregs have been overdone. That's my opinion.


And you're to it. I ignore many threads that don't appeal to me;
you're certainly free to do the same.


In this
group, I'm allowed to post it. Thanks be to the Almighty other don't
have to accept it.

That my friends is what a Good Discussion is about!!!

I think the "Colreg" has become BORING.


OK, we'll focus on the Inland Rules.

Enough!!!

Reading colregs and forming question doesn't make any one a sailor.

I'm Not for OT normally but after page after page of Coast Guard
regulations, a good political discussion sure as Hell beats pages of dry
Regulations.

Any sailor in a bar that would sit there with a drink and quote Reg.
would soon be talking to himself; as soon Neal and his own "Puppets" are
just about doing now.

BORING to say the least. BORING as hell in real time
discussion.Boring;-----Boring____Boring

ILL DRINK TO THAT
Ole Thom


And another thing thats annoying is trying to remember the subject of 1
thru 10 without trudging thru every question again and again, More info
in the header would be nice, that way we could ignore them with a bit
more ease and let others who do not know discuss and answer the
questions.

Nothing wrong with good questions to brush up, but lately it's been a
bit much. maybe Neal is going to re-new his licences and needs the
pratice.

I guess you aren't a captain Joe. I'm studying to take the six-pak license. I'm not a captain yet
but I know you only have to take the test once. If you let it expire you have to take the test again.
It's funny you think I'm Captain Neal. I logged on to his site. He weird but he knows tons about
sailing. More than anybody here. Well, I take it back. Maybe Jeff knows more.

Cheers,
Ellen
