Salutations and felicitations.

Cuomo is on a tight rope. He cannot admit the bill was a mistake or he will look like an even bigger fool. He honestly thought that the sheriffs and counties would go along with whatever they passed and never consulted anyone. Now, he faced with a massive back lash not just from legal gun owners but couties, towns, cities and assosciation on top of the massive poll dip. His only option to to either lose in court or allow the thing to be gutted to the point where it's voided. What Cuomo doesn't understand is that the damage he did to his reputation is now permenate and we upstate voters will not forget this one, ever.

@Jack and Matthew, regarding the ebb tide. For one thing, an ebb tide at a constriction like this greatly speeds up the current, and also greatly jacks up the waves and confused seas where the outflow meets the ocean, making for conditions that were much more difficult than this class was able to manage successfully. The seas that we ended up getting pulled out into were steep, close together and larger than what we were looking for our coaching purposes. Certainly there were beaches both to the north and south of us, but it would have taken some time with the longshore current to get far away from the river mouth enough to make a reasonable landing, and with a student out of her boat, and cold and wet, time was of the essence. If we had decided to let ourselves get swept further out, then we would have needed to travel some distance to make a good landing, and then we would have been dealing with her hypothermia at a greater distance from the parking lot and would still have needed external rescue in the end. As it was, where we were was hard to spot from the beach for the rescuers. Had we let ourselves get swept out to sea, I think it would have been even harder for us to be found without a helicopter.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

Thank you for the mention. I am always grateful for all you do for small business owners.
