Linc!  We're neighbors!

When I owned WILD ELF (# 297) I kept her out on BE-20 in Oyster Bay.  I 
donated her to a foundation last year and picked up a 1968 Chris Craft 
Commander 42, and she's moored on CC-25.  (I also keep a small Lyman runabout 
over on CD-46.)  What mooring is GYPSY on?  

I made the reference to asbestos because I make my living representing people 
who've been injured by exposure to asbestos products.  Its use is tightly 
regulated in the US, and I would be surprised to see anyone installing 
asbestos in an Alberg.  Canada, which has large asbestos mines, is much more 
liberal in its use, and remains a major exporter of the fiber to the rest of 
the world -- a matter of no small controversy.  (Of couse, we supply the 
world with cigarettes, so we haven't much high ground to claim here.)

Anyway ... I digress ....
