[Rhodes22-list] suggestions welcome

[Roger Pihlaja]

Hi Everybody,

I'm sorry, but I haven't been paying much attention to the list lately, too
much else going on in my life.  If anyone wants to take the writings I've
already contributed to the Rhodes List, that's fine.  They're in the public
domain.  However, I'm not particularly interested in sitting down to write
something new just to get published in some collection of nautical stories.
