| Fairbanks, AK Posts: 1122 | Yeah, Brule rhymes with cool. I'll try to remember that about the Letort. I want to fish the famous PA streams next spring while I'm still in the area, and it's certainly on my list. | |

| Palmyra PA Posts: 932 | Hey Gonzo, (and others who may have been wondering), I said I was "fairly sure" that your posts were playful because I was hesitant to speak too authoritatively on your behalf without consulting the source. It appears that it was clear to David, and probaby to everyone else that we're both hams who love to talk on. At least when we think we know something useful. Now that post on trout vision is one place where I have to just sit quiet and try to take it all in. | |

| "Bear Swamp," PA Posts: 952 | Hey Louie, just teasing (again). A fairly dry sense of humor is a tricky thing to convey in writing, so I resort to using the colon and parenthetical mark to emphasize my intent. However, your gentlemanly consideration is much appreciated. | |
