Review of a thread
Posted: Mon Apr 27, 2009 6:05 am
I'm sure Tim could correct me but in parusal of this site, I have stumbled across a couple
of threads that rate comment, IMHO. Both are in the Forum>Classic Sailboats area and the
first is "A Crazy Project I'm Very Seriously Considering...Swede 55" (posted 11/30/06 to
11/10/08). Wow, 12,841 viewings and 77 posts. I can easily justify, in my mind, that
traffic by the beautiful pics and the romanticism of the project.
But that pales in light of it's little sister, "Channel Cutters" with 7,164 views and 40 posts
(posted 3/14/05 to 10/23/06). How, you ask, can such meger numbers stand to the record of A
Crazy Project. Breadth. I doubt that anywhere on earth there is such a plethora of topics
covered in one document. Burried in an electronic archive in deep cyberspace is a blog
about uses of the most important polymer chemistry discovery known to mankind, and eloquent
wax on calculus, philosophy, education, sociology, psychiatry, politics (I have to justify
this one, "I think mandatory prison terms..."), inorganic chemistry, math education,
nautical porn, chauvinism, human ecology,lust, compitition, asthetics, voyerism, economics,
kinesthesiology, religion, and opinionism. There are institutions of higher learning that
charge a king's ransom and do not cover such applications of subjects. And its all about
boats. What else do I have to do at 3 am, I love this site. Dave.
