Graham I forgot to mention you and secret plans in earlier email. Oops.
Us old trolls have leaky memories Doesn't matter though. With the 25 cm of snow coming tomorrow Halifax will sink into the ocean under the weight of all the snow we have and we will all lose our boats. Off to boat tomorrow to clean off cover for third time in advance of this new threat. I wonder if this puts my April lunch date in jeapordy Mike Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone on the Rogers network.

I have to disagree a bit, it depends on the forum. I just got back from Vancouver where I met with 4 people I know from a forum, I consider them to be friends. Yes the big ones that is less likely, but I've actually met a few folks that I know of from Sailing Anarchy. From this site I've met a few folks, although Bob Abbott has never been closer than a boatlength. But I am on the side of the email list on this - I prefer the emails coming to me vs having to go check another web site.

Also on the J27 Yahoo group with its email list I met a couple people. I have never met a single person through any forum I have met and chatted with Bob Abbott and Rich Knowles because I knew their names and boats from the list I have been on both of their boats I have had many email conversations with Harry Hallgring and he even did a visual inspection of my current boat while I was in the process of purchasing it. Our paths did not cross in New Bedford, Mass unfortunately due to time constraints but I do consider many on this list to be friends. Forums have to be checked. Lists come to you. Many of us prefer the messages coming to us rather than going to look. Also like many others I do use forums like sailnet as well but not very often anymore. So I guess to me LIST = FRIENDS = COMMUNITY. Forum = Impersonal and anonymity.
