[Rhodes22-list] A List Notice Re IMF

[stan]

Chris and Rick,

OK, let' all go directly to jail and start over again.  I plead guilty. 
Rick (not Chris) was the intended target of my piece for his having 
carried my IMF claim to fame over to then, 'why wouldn't I therefore 
also lay claim to Rhodes cockpit cushions'. I thought that a worthy 
enough bit of humor to elaborate on for those who might not get it.

Hmm, on second thought Rick might be on to something.  Everyone knows 
now that "IMF" stands for GB's Inner Mast Furling, which is different, 
and therefore should not be lumped in with other non IMF systems that 
have a main sail furl into a mast.  But henceforth let it also be known 
that RCCCC stands for Rhodes Closed Cell Cockpit Cushions.  So when a 
friend says he has RCCCC on his 32 footer and is not happy with them, he 
(or she) is talking apples and oranges gibberish again.
