Hey, you know I was looking at the sponsons and I think if I used them
they'd get hung up on all the trees and roots and things and I'd likely
die
or at least be wet all the time. If I put them on my kids boat he'd likely
get caught in the local bridge ripple. Seems like these things could be
dangerous, especially in the hands of unknowing kids. If all kids had to
use
them, I wonder what the death rate would be just from these things getting
hung up on things? And then the person who says he is saving kids lives
would be at fault for taking them. hummmmmmmmmm. Are these things really
that great of an idea Tim. Can you just keep kids using them out on the
open
water, or do you think they might take their boats other places too, like
me? Or maybe we need a law that says kids can only boat in the open
waters?
Yeah, that'll do it.

Reason has been attempted. Hundreds -- literally, hundreds -- of
times. the sponsonbot is not amenable to reason, and your attempts at
reason only invoke further mindless replies. Please, Bob, give it
up. Do not engage this fruitcake in any way, because he is
susceptible to neither reason nor contempt.

Hey, don't worry, I was just testing him to see if he was a reasonable
person or not.
I guess not. :O)

Patriotic American citizens and the 9/11 Commission understand both
sponsons and airplanes. President Obama said on April 3, 2009 that
pilots trained only on small Cessna aircraft in Florida then flew
airliners into the 9/11 towers.

What is the 9/11 reference? Are you saying a kayak with sponsons stuffed
with explosives can sink a ship just as an airplane can bring down a
building? Is that what the 9/11 Commission found?

Perhaps we should all sing (to the Mary Poppins tune "a spoon full of sugar")
A sponson full of explosives makes the big ship go down,
The big ship go down, The big ship go down,
just a sponson full of explosives to make a big ship go down,
In the most excitefull way...

Oh my, here is a thought, what if terrorists all over the world were to
use sponsons with explosive substances and attack? Might a sponson just
a bomb waiting to happen? Afterall, the government can inspect inside a
kayak and canoe, can they inspect inside sponsoooons?

How do people know what's inside sponsons? Could they be a ticking time
bomb that soneone can remotely detonate?

Is the 9/11 commission concerned about Sponson In Sleeper Service Yakking
Shash cells or SISSY's?

What is your reference to 9/11 within the framework of sponsons?

For my own personal safety, I'm going to stay away from sponsoons until the
9/11 Commission issues a statement saying they aren't a terrorist tool!
