In Response To: Source for map info (John McNeely)

John, This is an alert and I'm done. In the process of removing my name from Nolan's list, I notices 5 errors in three categories: incorrect e mail addresses, owner dead, and boat sold. If you used this list, you have the same, unreliable data. You original plan to let people add their names to the map was much better. you got accurate and current information and you did not include anyone who prefers not to be listed. Still, under those circumstances, a fine idea and you are to be commended on your work. Is is not asking too much to let the actual owners to decide whether they want to participate? Bill
