I think it's pretty cool that the activity on ROFF took a big (though
temporary) downturn in June and July. Apparently, everyone was too busy
fishing to worry about meatloaf recipes and such. :-)

Another lesson is that trip reports and other on-topic threads cannot
compete with off-topic political screeds and originally on-topic threads
run wild (e.g., the longest thread by far: Fishing ON FOOT in Puerto Rico).

I knew you would all love this, but it amazes me no-one else knew about it,
or were you all keeping it quiet

Click on profile and see what naughty news groups everyone has been posting
too, you probably didn't even know you had been, or put someones email
address in and search to see what they get up to of an evening
