This is Paul Race. I love reader questions. In fact, I started the RiverboatMusic.com site because of reader questions. People who read my articles on other sites like CreekDontRise.com(tm) kept asking me about specific products. After a while, I realized I was typing the same answers over and over again, so I started this site to put those answers into a more organized format.

That doesn't mean I know everything, of course. So not only am I open to comments and corrections, I also learn as much from some reader questions as our readers do.

Update for 2024 - Unfortunately, my e-mail provider and web hosts both broke my contact pages without warning and have not bothered to help me get them working again. So FB messaging is our current default.

Go to our CreekDontRise FB page and DM me. I will try to get back within a day (if I don't FB keeps bugging me, so you have that).
