	It's is important to know that the confused Europeans call kayaks "canoes".  They call canoes "canadians".  I am unclear exactly what kind of boats these were. http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/07/04/slovenia.canoe.ap/index.html

Many many lives could be saved each year if the basic safety rules of various outdoor sports were taught in gradeschool <NT> PHILZZZ New

Too many outdoor sports to cover.  Schools can't cover core education topics well enough as is.   <NT> ezwater New
