(I mean the ones that fly on strings in the wind, not the birds...)
I am getting involved in kite flying, both as recreation and as a technical
research area (informally - I'm not an aeronautics engineer, though I try to
keep up). I don't expect enough interest to support a
"{tech|soc|talk}.kites", but a mailing list might work out. I would like to
see anything from discussion of construction techniques to announcements of
kite festivals, though purely local stuff like "I fly at the corner of X ave.
and Y st." won't be much use to the rest of the net.
(actually, that last point should be a general rule, for all of you who post
net.party announcements - it's three hard days driving from here to New
Jersey, so I'm probably not going to show up even if I am invited)

BITNET:reid@sask *MIGHT* work, but don't count on it...
With a strong enough wind, and a long enough tail, you can fly anything...
