fair enuf. i find your posts (and of course salmo's) interesting, but i also have 25,000 items in my inbox from the past two years (work-related primarily). i prefer to read about fishing and related issues on the bb, just think some of us would benefit from some straight to the point chat, where possible. unfortunately with the massive amount of reading that i do, i cannot spend as much time as i like hearing (reading) what you and others have to say about what i care about most, that is, fishing....
