I think that's the guy who was editor of PVTU's newsletter about that
time. I haven't seen him in 6 or 7 years. I think he was still a
student (UMass?) around 1995.

Oooo-o-o-o-ohhh...when I saw the subject, I thought ROFF was planning to
fake its own death or something...

Well, now, that pretty well sums the whole mess up, and in a very short
paragraph, too...

Cheers,

This was interesting:
All time top posters

More than double the second place entry... could be sign of a neurosis.

Or of nothing more than a computer program doesn't "know" "skwala" from
"thesameskwalaatanewaddress." Digs at Wolfie aside, Stevie, er, Barney,
er, Royal Wul, er, rw - well, whatever - is on the list twice, and
George (Ginkles) and other frequently, long-time posters aren't on it.
I've used one...well, um, er, _mainly_ one "from" addy for 10 or so
years while others have made multiple changes. I'd say that list is
exactly like a whole bunch of "data" that gets accepted as highly
meaningful, very important, and extremely interesting - IOW, useless
crap.

That was a nice report. Thanks for finding and sharing it, John.

Several things caught my eye:

Fishing with streamers; at that time of year, egg patterns are the
fly to use. (This was also before beed eggs were being used, which
makes a very big difference, especially in fish mortality.) A guide
would know exactly what fly/color/size to use for optimum fishing.

I'll take some flack for this, but when you go off on your own you do
stand the chance of going to unproductive water - i.e. low/high flows,
mis-colored water, etc, and a higher chance of facing a rogue bear.
Also, the choice of fly can be a hit or miss situation. I have never
had even a mediocre day of fishing in Alaska.

The size of the fish surprised me. Twelve inch rainbows? Three pound
pike? That can't be the norm.

Very nice time, however, and a good read. Again, thanks for
finding/sharing it.

Camera equipment: What? One digital camera should be more than
enough. Ahhh, but in 1992 they were still using that funny stuff -
film. d;o) Extra space should be filled with see through stuff....or
even Buds.

Neurosis (severe forms of normal experiences) versus Psychosis (severe
distortion of a person's perception of reality).

http://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/page.cfm?pagecode=GHGH

Obsession is a neurosis. And as we see here quite frequently, it can be
collective.

Meanwhile, if you weren't a ****head you wouldn't have to worry about
people
discovering (and/or remembering) that you are a ****head. The solution to
this conundrum should be obvious.......well, to anyone but a slow-learning
****head, anyway.

Wolfgang
138whatever.


I withdraw my diagnosis, exhibiting rage at strangers is a definite sign of
Psychosis...

Hm......

Well, since you've assumed the mantel of resident diagnostician and label
maker, what would be the proper term to use in referring to those who find
persons with disabilities of one sort or another to be nothing more than a
source of entertainment?

OBROFF: The Los Pinos was running high and muddy on Wednesday but we
hit the slow spots in the edges and eddies and took good fish on double
fly rigs as well as on the top with caddis dries. Later in the day saw
marked improvement in clarity but not necessarily in the number of hook
ups.

OBROFF: A mistake I made recently was to not take my portable tying kit
on vvacation as well as my spare waders. I sure could have used a few
more small dark caddis and my buddy could have used the waders that
didn't leak.
