and thought I'd check back and see what's up....Couldn't find too many
boating related posts????? |

Aahhhh I forgot. I'm a live aboard. Its 0 degrees, but cozy on the
boat. I bellong to so many live aboard forums I forgot that most
poeple store them away for the winter. I knew there was more "boat talk" when I join the forum earlier this
year.. Thanks! Don White Wrote:

| They have been that. Integrated Circuits were not invented when I built the
packing crates. circa 1959-60 |

| Bill,
I would assume they have been updated along the way. PS - Damn your old. ; ) |

| There is, but half of the posters here are winterized for the next six
months and suffering cabin fever. A large portion of other posters
appear not to even *own* a boat. Post a boating related question or bit of information and you should
get an appropriate response.

| I was out for about half a (short) day last Sunday. It was in the mid 40's F and
calm, not bad actually. Any one else notice the nasty smell of Sta-bil in the
fuel on a cold start? -rick- |

| Keep that up & I may have to trailer my Sandpiper down your way to trash
your overgrown sailing canoe in a race. |

| It's 44 degrees here, and trying to rain. I did not want to go outside to
shovel up the dirt pile on the sidewalk. But duty calls. |

| See if you can out run the surplus AIM-9 Sidewinders I mounted on the
siderails. Speaking of which, I know the fellow who came up with the glass/sensor
bonding process - took two years to develop the process so there
wasn't any distortion and to maintain transparency. He's quite an interesting guy. Later, Tom |

| Cannot believe how long that missile has been in production. I made packing
crates for them while in highschool. Worked part time for a pallet company
that had a contract for the crates. And I am Social Security age now. |

| Yeah...there's plenty of it. But, it's winter for half the country. It slows
things down in this newsgroup. Look for some knitting banter over the
weekend, though. |

| I just bought some CDs of reasonably old recordings. A couple of them
apparently were re-mastered. They didn't sound this good on LPs.
I'd rather banter about the MJQ than knitting. |

| Here it's,
70F, winds at 10mph ENE, Air pressure 30.13Hg, dew point 59F, humidity
68.2%, A few clouds at 3100ft, overcast clouds at 4000 ft . Most likely
it will rain tonight. Still enough time to get in a couple of hours
fishing though. Sorry, I know you could care less. I understand.

| Tom,
Anytime I have been out on a sailboat in freezing weather, a large "greenie"
always comes over the deck and manages to go down the neck of my foul
weather gear, and into my boots. |
