Thanks for clarifying that.

Gee, who would these be Chuck? Surely you're not referring to one
political
group are you?

How can you be confused? I clearly defined the group as "people who are
always automatically so anti-tax". Does that constitute a "political
group"? Which one? I think there are anti-tax fanatics in many
different groups.

Yes, you are correct. My bad!

Chuck, I believe you're correct, The 100' or so spot that tug, and the
other small one that used to be rafted outboard is indeed a rock
embankment.
Thanks, UD

That's probably the right solution.

Ignoring him means that only one person is acting like a ridiculous
asshole, but responding runs the risk of stooping to his level and
suddenly creating a second.

Another dry drunk, (reformed flamer), falls off the wagon and back into
the dungheap.
No surpise.

You just can't stand being challenged on your views or your subsequent
spins, now can you.

Killfile me for all I care. It will show I was correct in my assumption.

I knew the right wingers here couldn't stop name calling. It's all they
have. How low can you go?

The only group would be, "People who are always automatically so
anti-tax" If the shoe fits......

An even more interesting question might be, "How does a
properly
fitted and
fastened life vest go floating away?"

How do you know it was "properly fitted and fastened", John?

That *is* the question, isn't it???

[Thanks!]

No, John, please learn to comprehend what you, yourself has asked.
You
asked HOW DOES a properly fitted and fastened......

You didn't ask IF is was properly fitted and fastened, etc. By the
way,
sliding down jagged rip-rap rocks could certainly rip a properly
fitted
and fastened life vest from a person, allowing it to "go floating
away".

'Rip rap rocks?' From whence came that? Have you been there and seen
the canal?
