Buddy,
I hope you enjoy your hiatus, if that is what it is. Many lists go through
these dark times, and many great contributors like yourself elect to
uns*ubscribe because a list isn't "fun" anymore.
I expect the list will come back to "normal" over the next few
months. Maybe it's just a case of cabin fever from the winter? Anyway, I
hope you have a good time fishing. Catch a big salmon for us.
Hope you see you back when things return to normal.
Skip
