Has there been an outcome to that sad affair yet?

nope...federal judge issued a preliminary injunction stopping land
acquisitions pending better evidence on environmental/wildlife impact.
it's interesting watching the military fight with struggling eastern nc
towns, poor farmers, and rich charlotte lawyers (who are working without
charge or fee), with one of jesse helms' handpicked judges right in the
middle. the navy never had a chance. g

I'll go with the poor farmers every time!

Yeah, I found two. One, is on the left side of the stream and you followed it to the
parking lot the last time; the other one is on the right side of the stream and it
goes up to the top of the falls, where ya cross to another trail up to the parking
lot.

Remember to bring a second pair of glasses, other than sunglasses, dry matches,
flashlight, dry change of clothes, GPS, and a BIG flask of single malt!

Sounds good to me, but I suggest that we get to the stream at the break of dawn! I
fished it back in the Spring, by myself, and it took me 9 1/2 hours. I skipped a lot
of the lower section and was not able to fish the last stretch due to an unplanned
lightning, hail and torrential rain storm. Of course, then I had to hike out the
trail and 2 miles of 181 Hwy back to my truck. I was beat for two days afterwards.

See ya soon, I can't wait to to do the death march boogie!

If you know which fish is good size two seconds after you catch
it, you're doing nothing wrong. If you know for sure which fish
is going to be good size two seconds BEFORE you catch it, what
you're doing wrong is wasting your time fishing. You should be
buying stocks and bonds all week and playing the horses on the
weekends.

so it's good
practice to use proper technique every time.

You've forgotten, haven't you? Many of us have seen you fish. :)

I can't remember anything I've forgotten, what's your point ?

And I generally do.......but then, we'd already established that......hadn't
we?

you're doing nothing wrong.

Hm.......so, when Jeff, Mark, or Jennifer slaps you around they are doing
nothing wrong so long as they know approximately what size you are shortly
after they've got you hooked?

is going to be good size two seconds BEFORE you catch it, what

Oh goody. I am REALLY looking forward to your beautifully crafted
explanation of what your knowlege of a fish BEFORE you hook it has to do
with the propriety of playing it on the reel after it's hooked.

Remember, "There is honor is doing things right, and **FOR ME** putting the
fish on the reel is doing fly fishing right.You hardly ever know which fish
is going to be good size and which is not so it's good practice to use
proper technique every time"?

so it's good

Well, yes, I see that you do remember.

That you don't remember anything you've forgotten........and this is, in
large part, the source of your pain.

Not to worry, I've known for quite some time now that
one should avoid tit-for-tat Usenet conversations with
Wolfie. Better I think to play with him a bit until he
inevitably makes a total ass of himself all by hisself.
