I just read this thread for the first time. I met G Man at the Columbia Flotilla this spring gunnel to gunnel.(Team Sneakin' Out) My crew will agree that he seemed like a genuinely nice guy and really hoped that he would do well. He seemed to be the type to really earn and deserve his rewards (he travelled a ways too). As I read this thread I kept thinking to myself that there must be a mistake or maybe he made a mistake (I had even forgiven him). Why wasn't he responding? Alas, an explanation. Whew. I am going out of my way to shake his hand the next time. I am also going to tell my crew of the further adventures of G Man.
