I agree with you, ML, that progress can be good and bad. However, just because I think that the new advancements in fish finders, etc. are kind of bogus and not reflective of one's fishing skills, it does not mean that one can't call it progress. A good example is stem cells and stem cell research.
Dave D. Thanks. I try. I will proudly mount any meadow muffins that you care to send, prominently on my home's walls for all to see.
