I can only assume your use of the term "spot on" refers to skin
cancer. You should be ashamed insulting those of use who have had skin
cancers cut off (3 squams and counting for me). Skin cancer is a very
real danger to fly fishermen and should not be trivialized by snide
comments such as yours.

Now, if you say that isn't what you meant, I get to call you a liar,
right?

Nice try, Charlie. I too have had one removed. And now I have just been
told
I probably have lung cancer. I have a procedure next week to find out for
sure. Ya wanna call me "Wheezer" too.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, what a wonderful opportunity for reflection and
a bit of soul searching. For all the bickering and back stabbing that goes
on in this place, it has nevertheless proved to be a place where at least a
few true and lasting friendships have begun. It has been a place for people
to learn not only about a shared avocation but also at least a bit about
what it means to be human and interact with other humans. In the long run,
of course, none of it lasts.......which is not necessarily as sad as it may
seem.

who may, at one time or another, have seen a more blatant, callous, and
self-serving example of manipulation, but certainly can't remember one.
