I apologize for any of My off topic comments.. I'll stay fishing/tying related, Chuck

I used to be quite proud of this VFB mail list. What happened?

Today a post was made...a good post... it attempted solicitation of comments and thoughts that actually pertained to fly tying. I was really looking forward to the discussion. Thanks Paul M for a most lucid reply... sadly, yours was the only one. All other replies turned a viable topic into a "good-ole-boy" diatribe...a much too frequent occurrence of late.

At the top of this note you will find a request for unsubscribing instructions. I don't blame him. If this wasn't my list, I'd be gone. I see two to three new subscribers daily... and the same number of folks bailing by unsubscribing daily. Why... because the group has become very closed and familial. Yes, over the years we've all come to know each other but for this list to continue we must strive to accept new members.

I don't currently have the time or energy to be the tyrant landlord of the list. If someone would like to step up to the position please raise your hand.

As the list currently stands, I can't envision a need for it to continue in it's present form. So what do we do? Suggestions?

I'll start...

Biggie... refocus on fly tying/fishing.

...you guys continue the discussion...
