The Dog Is Always Right
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that, regardless of the topic, our beloved SailingDog hall monitor most always seems to get the last word in and appears to have unlimited and boundless knowledge of most all things nautical??  
True, there have been occasions where he stands corrected (mostly for quoting others who are wrong), but these occurences seem to be few and far between - a mere drop in the ocean ...of posts on SailNet. Not being the "expert" that SD is, on most topics I wouldn't know whether he's right or wrong!! 
Thoughts anyone??

I think he is on the phone with Chuckles 24/7 and it is Chuckles giving him all the carnal info / typo to write... but that is just me...

Jody--
It was revealed in a previous thread that Chuckles doesn't actually exist....he's an alternate identity of mine... actually a 'bot setup to use as a foil.
Hartley-
I've screwed up plenty of times... they're just hard to find with all the posts I have.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Actually...a careful analysis of Dogs posts reveals the following:
1/4 of posts= Welcome to Sailnet...pls. see my rules!
1/4 of posts= Go Search the Archives
1/4 of posts= Repeat the solution Camaraderie gave earlier in the thread
1/4 of posts= Multihulls good...lead mines bad
