Electra Springs? It was a recreational area on part of the Mokelumne River
years ago. There was a placid pool-like part where kayakers practiced their
eskimo rolls, and lower down, kids would wade around in the rocky parts
catching little critters. It was wonderful. Now all I can find on the web
is some references to the Electra Run. Is this in the same area? Does
anyone know? Has the area that used to be called Electra Springs been
ruined by some water project? I'd like to go back there -- I think I could
find it -- but I don't want to go all the way up there just to find it's
been ruined.

Thanks for any info.

Jesus, CT. If I'd known this group was inhabited by such sticklers for
mindless protocol, I might have posted somewhere else. It would be
understandable if this were a busier group, one in which people have to sift
through dozens of postings every day, but it's a slug! LOL

You call it mindless protocol. I call it common courtesy (and proper
netiquette) not to waste the time of people who are here to help. I
post to several newsgroups and forums, and my time must be spent
efficiently, and I'm sure others here are in the same situation.
rant off

CT C-boater (OK?)

Comming to Ms.V's aide (sort of).
I don't know why you blame her for not having the proper "netiquette"
in how to prevent you from wasting your own time!
It's up to you to filter and choose what you wish to click on!! You
only waste your own time!
Remeber some college prof's who we swore would just waste our
time....in my mind I was letting him waste my time! So the fault was
mine for sitting there! (it's weak, but valid! )

Now Ms. V....if nobody comes to your aide, you can't get 'miffed' as
you didn't follow the proper etiquette to let your post be easier to
filter for those not willing to click on everything in front of them!
I'm on a number of forums/boards where ppl use filters that filter out
such indescript subject lines! It's in your own best interest to
present your query with the proper neon lights and billboards so only
those interested will apply!

Cheers and go easy on each other, we all still have to get through a
monday tomorrow!
