Unfortunatly, it seems to me that damn near everything has fallen prey to the
concept that massive additions of money will make it more fun.
There's hardly a sport that one can't find expensive accessories for. Once
one finds something that's fun, We americans particularly, it seems want to
''inprove'' it using the latest carbon fibre, lazer bonded technology.
This seems to be our tradition. We were known for it during our many early
wars Recall the razorblade radios?
