I sent website feedback to iws/Zulusports. The signal to noise ratio
when you get down into the community pages (for example) is incredibly
low.

Maybe for those who are willing to PAY, we could subtract some of the
ads! I pay for an ISP so that I'm not forced to always being looking
at ads (seems kind of Clockwork Orangeish), and so I don't send ads out
with my email. Free + ads is one thing, but paying to see ads sucks.

And thanks to Ken's generous employer who provides the equipment
and bandwidth to host the site, as well as the enlightened attitude
to recognize the value in goodwill, employee development, and giving
back to the community.

Second the recommendation of Promotion. I want to know how you
can sail 180 days a year and not need repairs, though! I'm out
about a tenth as much, and I've got some slices that need to be
fixed. ("Normal wear and tear" as they say.)
