The way you speak reminds me of an old Star Trek Next Generation episode called "Darmok". In this episode, the Enterprise encounters a species called the Tamarians who speak in a language composed entirely of parables and metaphorical references. This makes direct communication incredibly difficult for Captain Picard and his crew.

So.. Like I thought... I don't qualify.

You may hear from me this summer, once we start to figure things out.

Ohh... I might have to get some good absorbent layers since then !!!

One of my all-time favorite TNG episodes.

Malok, his socks absorbent, his beats unskipped. Malok and Gary E at fish meeting, their audience bewildered.

Of course you qualify. You are delightful.

That was a great episode with the great Paul Winfield as Picard’s partner in the fight at Tanagra . Fans will recall that Paul Winfield played Captain Terrell and , along with Pavel Checkov , discovered Khan Noonien Singh on Ceti Alpha V in “ The Wrath of Khan “ .

A fish fan and a Star Trek devotee. Love it.

Virtually any speaker my my club comes with a visual presentation. The club can take this from their laptop and project it onto a screen. So, if you are going to have a remote speaker you need a way to accommodate this. The presentation visuals include text and images including relevant pictures of fish etc.

Now here is what I have learned keeping 20 full time tanks for 20 years. If I tell somebody who does not keep fish that I have 20 tanks, they almost always ask, "Why so many?" When I attend a fish weekend event and I tell people I have 20 tanks the typical response is, "Why so few?"

If you want to talk fish then join a club and attend weekend events and public fish auctions.
