Yeah, I posted something as a test balloon, and got no replies.

I miss the old rbp also, and I don't find Boatertalk to be a good
substitute. Too many folks there...too many 'experts' with a narrow
range of experience, and the posting style (content in the header)
seems too much like a group SMS-fest.

I still have some great stuff to share, if rbp wasn't so dead. Summer
of 2006 I ran the first descent of the Delger-Muron river in Outer
Mongolia...I owe Canoe&Kayak magazine an article on it, but I never
got around to writing it...

I still check in regularly, but have moved mostly to Yahoo activity
specific groups. Usenet was a great forum in its day, but it has a
limited lifetime. Google and Yahoo are working hard to make it go
away. Fewer and fewer ISP provide newsgroup access.
