Hay Dan.
That brought you out of the woodwork. We need more members to do the same.

Alright guys and gals, you got me out of lurk node.

I will finally come out of lurk mode and add to this discussion. I too agree 
with most of the replies here. I am members of both forums and lists like 
these, and both have their pluses and minuses. For me. I like the ease and 
informality of lists like this over the forum set-up. Just so much more 
personal and easy to use to me.

Even though I don't post much here, and don't participate in many of the fly 
swaps, I read most of the messages posted. Well, maybe not most of them, but 
some of them...well, OK you got me, maybe a few messages get past the reading 
of the subject line, LOL. In all seriousness, I have learned a lot from this 
group. I am sure I will continue to learn as more and more posts are made. 

Not only do I learn about fly tying and fishing, which is great, I also gain 
some insight as to who the members here are. That in itself is reason enough to 
be a member here. Thanks guys, I feel as though I have friends from around the 
world, from Sweden to South Africa, from Australia to England. From the USA, 
and even from Kansas!

I know that if I need to know something, I can post the inquiry here on VFB, 
and usually withing minutes, I will have an answer. That in itself is worth the 
price of admission here. To top it off, the answers arrive in my mailbox 
automatically and all by themselves, without me needing to click on a link to 
go somewhere else to read the reply.

If I were to ask the same question on a forum, and if I forget to 'subscribe' 
to the thread, and I get distracted for a day or two and I forget to check the 
forum, I may never see any replies. 

At any rate, thanks for this thread. It has brought some life to VFB. And now, 
since I am working 32 hours a day, I shall, out of necessity, return to the 
realm of lurkdom until I can take my next breath of air ( I am not allowed to 
breathe while at work! LOL).

Have fun and smooth waters,

Salty Dan

If at first you don't succeed, maybe you shouldn't try sky diving!
