When I read "vintage wooden yacht" in the same sentence with "shredded sails" I cringe.

A steel hull won't win the race, but it won't break apart, either.

New Zealand seems to be bringing us all sorts of news....

Anyone know if this is true?

They put out the 10th addition of their admin book in 2010. The front cover was of a wooden ship. There is lots of activity, but someone is dumping a coffin overboard. The “someone” is ‘less’ and the coffin is ‘more’. It signifies that nobody uses the ‘more’ command since ‘less’ is better.

Interesting that the last edition would have a coffin being dumped overboard.

I read her book in the mid 90’s, it was influential to me in deciding to make a career change. I wrote her back then and I think asked her about the U. of Colorado where she worked and other questions. She sent me back a very nice reply. I hate to read this but I guess she was doing what she loved to do.
