In Response To: Re: Strip: Head, heart or wallet (Glen G)

: Definitely no offense intended Charles and others, I am very aware
: that there are a lot of older folk (I purposely did not say
: "old") on this forum and building kayaks as well as
: plenty of other forms of activity who still get it. I was
: referring to the "older gent" as an example of someone
: who had never seen a timber kayak before and certainly not in
: any derogatory sense, I could just as easily have said a
: "young fellow" as there are plenty of younger folk who
: would be in the same situation who have never seen a timber
: kayak as well. If I offend, I apologise, but I am also no spring
: chicken with plenty of experience, just not in kayaks, and I
: thoroughly expect to be building and being very active for many
: years to come.
: When I get to be in my 70's, I will then refer to people in their
: 80's (whether they still get it or not), as being older folk,
: nothing more, nothing less.

: So what kayak are you building?

: Glen G
I'm finishing a Great Auk 14 and also a sof canoe (Stonefly) designed by Jeff (Kudzu) Horton. I know you didn't mean anything derogatory, just thought I'd remind you of the many older folk on this forum. BTW my son is working with me on the canoe and he's a young 41.
