one-eyed man who's crowned himself king. He NEEDS that.

Of course, since we're all blind, there's only his word for it that he
has one eye...

"not so perfect" people for intruding. Harry, have you considered
setting up a newsgroup just for all the "intelligent, debonair and
charming" like yourself ?

Actually we seem to be doing a fine job of getting back to it without
his help, thank you... Even the off-topic posts have been much more
civililized & polite too.

Point well made, Ms. Hall

Don't know what happened. I had some great conversations with her.

I think Wayne said she's experiencing poor health which is a shame. I miss her- she was always kind...

Actually it turns out that she is very active on Cruisers Forum, which
BTW is a pretty good group for boating questions. The moderators
there tolerate very little nonsense of the type we experience here. I
talked to Peggie on the phone recently and she sounded well.

That's very nice to know, Wayne. Thanks for the update...
