No one, I hope. This is open to all Laser sailors, to post anything on their
minds. Any message you don't like can be deleted with a click.

Will Sadler does an excellent, if thankless, job. If YOU are motivated to
keep such extensive statistics as you asked for, why don't YOU volunteer to
do it?

"Engineered and managed"?? I don't see you volunteering to help. I know you
put tons of time and effort into your own website, which is wonderful, but
why do you feel the need to publicly attack someone else's hard work?
"Standards ..... enforced"?? Just how do you propose to enforce standards?
Who is going to establish "standards", you? I think not.

Too late. I think you owe Will an apology. This is exactly the kind of crap
we don't need on this public list.
