the key word here is 'hobby'. Sailing is a hobby for a lot
of us, not a way of life, as for others. Sailing is but one
of many hobbies I enjoy.

What do those who own sailboats but live "up north" where
they can sail only a couple
months out of the year do during the winter months but go
stir crazy? It looks to me like
most of this newsgroup lives in climes where sailing is
not possible most of the time. Is
that the reason the joint is dripping with hostility?

I think it would be more sensible to have a hobby one
could enjoy the year around.

Speaking of enjoy. I invite you to visit Ted's of Beverly
Hills where you will find
culinary enjoyment every day of the year. At Ted's we care
about your eating pleasure
day in and day out.

I'd like to personally invite Thom Stewart for a
complimentary meal. Our steak is so
tender it can even be gummed with pleasure.

I'm Ted Bell!
