    My point rests with the dead horse.

    I guess I missed the point, thought you were asking a question.

    Double your chances of success when you're running two businesses at once.

    The outfits that keep the straps on the winches just pull some out and throw it over, and over the rubrail. That's my theory why you see so many like that. The rest of us are to OCD for that.

    I've never put the strap on the inside of the rub rail and I've never been pulled in for it.

    The rule was rescinded in 2006, but this seems to be posted every second day.

    Just wait. Someone will dig up the old rule and post it to prove you wrong. Happens every time.

    So the old one (straps under rub rail) is outdated. And I take it today you can run with straps over or under the rub rail? This is what I'm asking, but everyone just posts their experience running this or that way
