Thanks for the article pointer. I had to go back up to the top and work
my way down from http://www.oaklandtribune.com/ as their server is a
little too tricky for its own good.

This link to the "print this article" version might work:

  "On any given gusty day, they are out there, by the hundreds or
   even thousands..."

*Thousands* of sailors? I must've stayed home that day. Either that
or that's why 101 was full to the brim. :-*

I liked Ted Pierson's description of kitesailing:

  "Sometimes it's like being dragged by a boat and the driver is
   drunk and won't let you go."
