Bob,

I suspect some of us just don't bother to edit our sig blocks.  Being a C&C
owner is enough to brag about!  We know whose advise to trust, and it has
no relationship to formal education or job title.  You are correct that
being "lawyers, chiropractors, professors, or garbage collectors" does not
make us knowledgeable about our boats.  Crawling in the bilge, reading
equipment manuals and learning by asking, watching and doing makes us
knowledgeable.  If I ever need a chiropractor in Bedford Canada, at least
I'll know one!

See you on the Bay!
