I ddn't even get as far as the kite store before getting hooked. I was watching a gentleman fly a skynasaur aerobat with his son. I went to ask him what it was, I'd never seen stunt kites before, and he said "want to give it a try?" Well, I ended up buying an F-24 before the week-end was over. My wife, my 10 year old son and my-self spent the next few months bashing that poor kite and the the aerobat that followed it into the ground and off several trees. Then I saw the same man flying a Hawaiian Team Kite. You've got it, he said, "Want to give it a try?" again. I've been hooked ever since. I fly a team kite now and my son flies a spin-off. But those Rev's are looking better every day. maybe somedday ;-) the "other" Steve Thomas Central Kansas Library System Automation Services cenks1lb@ink.org = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Date: Thu, 26 May 1994 16:51:06 -1000 From: kiteman@well.sf.ca.us (George David Maurer) Message-Id: <2s3n6q$qic@nkosi.well.com> Organization: The Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link, Sausalito, CA Subject: Re: re a threatened lurker responds Karen, Greetings! Good to have your company in this usually pleasant place. As you may well know there are people who *surf the net* with little more to do than find places to inject their venom, then sit back and count how many gigabytes (not to mention dollars) are used to try and heal it. Best Breezes, TakoGus! George = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
