Today in the mail, something that made no sense whatsoever: a form letter notifying me that the Census form will be coming a week hence. Surely they could have saved the postage and just sent the Census form.
Oh, wait, no… since it was the government sending the form letter, it didn’t really cost anything to mail it… right? Right?
I was only slightly more disturbed by the fact that the letter was printed in six languages.

Going by the manual, the building process for the Launch is broken down into six major stages. The first stage consists of assembly of the keel/stem/sternpost, and construction of the framing jig.
The first thing one does, though, is to ensure that everything that is supposed to be included in a kit is, in fact, included. In this case, the kit contains sheets of laser cut parts, bundles of strip materials, sailcloth, fittings, accessories, sheets of plans and the manual.
