 Since my name has been dropped a couple times I should at least make a
comment.
 
 This discussion has been worthwhile no matter which side of the issue you are
on.  Folks out there building or flying, high flight time or low timers read
and are reminded of the need for good judgement.  So, I don't think this
subject is ever a "dead horse."
 
 Lynn Farnsworth seems to have a good perspective on the issue.  At any rate,
use good judgement, know your limits and the limits of your airplane and don't
exceed the limits of either of them, and have fun with the airplane.
