Yes I can. Reading is one of my strong suits. You should try reading
primary sources sometime, instead of relying on Marxist and/or Neocon
propaganda. I suggest The Adams-Jefferson Letters to start.


You missed where he stated you have never met...

Sorry, but no sense y'all wasting all that effort on an errant premise.

I'm sure you boys will find something more substantial to bicker about,
shortly ;-)

That's Roff for you, comments calling Ms Parks the right person in the
wrong place at the right time gets you all kinds of crap but using an
orange synthetic post on an Adams goes untouched.


I'm guessing you *really* wouldn't like the para Adams I tie then.
I usually use fl. chartreuse "parapost" stuff, but have been playing
around with crystal flash in various colors.

I also have para Adams tied with calf body hair and turkey flats, if
that's any help. :-)

This from a guy who can wax poetic about tradition and handtools in
woodworking.

My likes or dislikes about how you tie flies is not the issue. It's
about the tradition, the good Lord meant for trout flies to be tied
with fur, hair, and feathers. Is nothing sacred these days?

Conviently being hypocritical about using Chenile, Krystal Flash,
floss, and copper wire in his nymphs and streamers.

I know what you mean. The next thing you know, folks will be using
graphite rods, nylon leaders and plastic flylines.

Hey, it's only hypocritical if the other guy does it. :-)

Nothing is sacred. Different people have different likes and dislikes.
For example, I really like the imaginative use of modern synthetic
materials in flies, and I thought those plastic "eggs" we were using in
Alaska were cool -- perfect imitations. Let a million flowers bloom.

Not to mention that enormous pom-pom I've seen on your leader. :-)


Hey, I only use *real* yarn on those pom-pom's. Doesn't your local
sheep farm have neon green sheep too?

Thanks Bill
