Spidey,

I suppose we could let you in.

A few more questions now.

Do you admit or deny that you are addicted?

Can you stop building? I can stop, I usually stop once or twice a day!

Can you identify red cedar, yellow cedar, redwood, and mahogany with your eyes closed?

Do you need a daily fix of sniffing freshly worked cedar?

What is your favorite weave/weight of fiberglass?

Are you a pusher? (How many people have started building because of you?)

Do you think of ways to improve various kayak designs? (please explain IN DETAIL!!!)

Are you constantly looking for ways to make a kayak stronger while making it lighter at the same time? (e-mail me with any ideas)

Have you read every book on kayak building that you have heard of? (please list, in case I missed something)

Do you have a folder called kayak building for you favorite bookmarks? (I'll need to inspect it for completeness)

Can you tell match the person's names with pictures of their kayaks of the top 10 posters on this BBS?

Are you eagar to answer these questions and many more?

Mike
