I truly hope my request for Dakota plans were not taken the wrong
way. Anger was never in my mind at any time. Frustration, yes.
There have been a few "interesting" posts in the mix. One post in
particular was quite shocking. Is there no moderator on this list?
I've bitten my tongue so hard and so many times I'll be talking with a
lisp for a week.

I've bitten my tongue so hard and so many times I'll be talking with a

Hi All,
I feel somewhat responsible for asking about Wyoming plans. I had no idea it would stir up a mess. I love Bolger boats, and have much respect for him and for his wife. I've bought two sets of plans from Michalak, the shantuese and the Philsboat, and I keep going back to Bolger. I just don't think anyone who's ever lived had his touch, no offense to Michalak (I still love his boats as well).
Let us all remember why we come to forums like this. We love boats. We like to talk about them, build them, daydream about them, and float in them. Ill feelings and quick tongues don't belong here. Maybe in politics, but not a forum devoted to Phil Bolger's designs.

Can point out that the recent turmoil on the list is similar to the
turmoil last August and September when three "people" showed up
stirring up anger about difficulty buying plans?
Now, several new "people" have showed up, with similar stirring up of anger.
When you check the originating IP address of the messages of these
"people" they appear to me to be from the same narrow dynamic IP
range. This isn't rock solid proof, but it is an interesting
coincidence. Also, the tone of voice of these "people" is very much
similar. The earlier "people" has a axe to grind over buying plans,
and these new "people" have the same complaint.
I think we are being trolled again, and the best response to internet
trolling is to be calm and ignore.
Let's ignore the trolling and talk Bolger boats instead.

stirring up anger about difficulty buying plans?

When you check the originating IP address of the messages of these
"people" they appear to me to be from the same narrow dynamic IP
range. This isn't rock solid proof, but it is an interesting
coincidence. Also, the tone of voice of these "people" is very much
similar. The earlier "people" has a axe to grind over buying plans,
and these new "people" have the same complaint.

Let's ignore the trolling and talk Bolger boats instead.
