Apparently there is a quorum present. After reading the minutes -or just
looking at the coloring you did at the previous meeting- perhaps a
discussion of the merits of bringing back leaded gas.

Nah. Leaded gas is used in other places like Europe and Asia where they
have more cars and fewer emission controls.

As they say down the road, "That ain't right". I lurk in here picking the brains of sailors and I've
read your posting record. You seem to be a mile wide in opinion and an inch deep in fact on things.
And you don't post anything about boats or cruising. What are you doing in here? You shilling for
someone? And most of all, why would you respond to a post titled: "Attn: Flat Earth Society
Members"? It's not like it's a club anyone would want to join.

I've been around most of Europe and it is right. Very few pollution
controls. Was recently in Moscow and there were no controls at all.
Try Madrid in July or Milan almost any time.

Reading about other's experiences. And I do own a Hunter sailboat.
Looking to buy a powerboat in the near future, planning on doing more
extensive cruising when I retire (soon).

Why are you responding to it? Are you a member?

Are you with the usenet police?

Are you the newsgroup moderator?

I recall several posts from Cessna310 that contained some interesting
details on global warming and some links for more information.

But you better hurry or you'll miss your Flat Earth Society and "I Saw
Sasquatch Club" meeting.
