This thread is completely tiresome, and mostly pointless. I think I
can settle it before it degenerates further, as it has almost reached
the point of seeing whose weenie is bigger. Let's just all agree to
and stipulate the following obvious truths:
Dry throwing is the best method in the world.
Anyone who can't throw dry is incompetent.
Any teacher who does not teach dry throwing is incompetent.
Any school that employs a teacher who doesn't throw dry is incompetent.
Dayton is the greatest thrower in the history of the world.
Dry throwing is faster than wet throwing even when it's not.
A wobbly pot rim shows expert control of the clay, while a true rim
shows lack of control.
There, if we all just admit this, there can be no more argument and
this tedious thread can die. So, anyone who disagrees with the above,
respond NOW:
...chirp ...chirp ...chirp (those are crickets!)
Good, no one disagrees. Dayton wins, and this argument is over.
Wasn't that easy?
I was talking to a friend yesterday who is a fisherman. He told me
that after dropping his line in the water a number of times, if no
fish even nibble at the bait, the fisherman gives up and moves on to
somewhere else. Just something to think about.
...James (who can, in fact, throw dry, but rarely does)
