Re: [OMC-Boats] Contents of OMC-Boats digest... / Redundant Parts questions!

I agree with the prior respondees.  The only stupid or idotic question is the one not asked.  And it might take asking the same question three different ways or on six different occasions before it triggers someone to respond who might not have responded previously.
 
And so what if it's been asked and answered previously??  I have never been able to figure out if there is a method of accessing archived email chains or if they even exist.
 
And finally...., it can generate interesting dialog in a group that sometimes can go a week or two without a comment.

Amen to what Jeff said. I'm very new to the list and don't know much at
all about OMC's yet. If people get bugged by questions from people like me
then how can I learn anything? How do I find sources or boats or get answers to
questions? I actually used the search that was begrudgingly provided to further
my knowledge of OMC's. That is the reason for the list.

> oh great..........now, in fear of bothering people, stuff is getting
taken off list. I personally don't find it a waste of time to post photos,
vague redundant questions, or tell everyone about where you might find windlace
or lenses or whatever. please DON'T take it off list - someone might
reply with a source that I haven't heard about yet. Kind of hard to find
out about stuff like that when there's this constant urge to go off list.
 In addition to having google on my computer, I also have this neat thing
called the delete key.
