I have a sneaking suspicion that most of the folks who monitor the list, 
agree with you Larry. That could be why you only see those few rehash their 
stuff in plain view, rather than take it off line. They often don't drag new 
blood in.

About never logging an official flight, you should at least try it soon.   In 
my native country we have a saying that translates into something 
like..."continuous 'God Have Mercy'.... is boring to the priest" .  The point 
is, endless practice has little meaning. 

Please understand that pattern is alot of things to those of us who have been 
in it a long time. One main thing it is, is a journey not a destination, to 
quote an overused cliche.
