I started reading Lat 38 in the late 80's. I had the bright idea I would get me a sailboat. Lat 38 threw me into a frenzy full of desire to sail. I took lessons, and bought my first
boat Frolic a 30ft.
Columbia. I was thrown into another frezy that I had to go somewhere, so I sailed off alone to
Mexico, and back on Frolic. Then Lat 38, aka Richard, starting looking into cats. Off I went into another frezy, and bought a cat, Imagine, a 46ft. cold molded monster of a
boat compared to Frolic. You can see Lat 38 has been a huge influence in my life!
Tao occassionaly puts something here out of Lat 38. This causes me to peek through lectronic latitude now & then, so I thought I would share some words of wisdom from the Lat 38 readers.
