These are all adjustments for Maconi Main.

I don't want to be in a discussion with a Sockpuppet. I know Bart & Ganz to be real. JML Sigs I was thinking about running rigging Thom. Still I liked your answer. The flattening reef is something others missed. There are some interesting ways to rig a flattening reef. |
