Part of the reason I'm posting this is because of requests in the past for such a thing - not so much the YoYo thread.

Some of the problem, as I see it, is that information should be shared so that the knowledge and RESPECT for what we do is properly gained. Writing an article for catching a 50 in 3 easy steps is a useless as 4 minute Abs - just doesn't happen. Basic methods should absilutely be shared and encouraged between people online and offline. Better and more involved methods should be shared too - sometimes online sometimes offline - but sometimes these methods (and the spot word ) are sometimes not best shared on a platter for the world to see whether online or in print. They are best done fisher to fisher on a one on one basis (where people meet like here) or in a club.

I'm not trying to exclude people when I bring something like this up. What I am trying to figure out is that if an avenue is created, with the blessing of those on the site, that will remove some of the bickering that goes on is the best thing to do. We are a commnity here and sharing within our community benefits all of us I think. I'm just trying to see if tweaking the way we share is worth it or not.

Thanks!

John
