Ie, in keeping up on it. With a variety of interests, it's something that I find tough to do ..... ............. but coming across a little fact this month, it's a reminder it has to be done. Ie, a note in one of my journals that there are only three countries, four craft in the world that have the deep diving capability to 20K feet and the US is not, does not have one of them. Probably not such a great fact here on the face of it, but for me, detecting illegal salvage operations is one of my credentials and it is something that I should know. We each have things that is in our expertise, that people turn to us when they have questions. We need to know the facts that make us valuable for people to have around. _________________________________________________ ("We lost contact with our spy ship the St. Georges; this morning, we sighted floating wreckage."--Vice Admiral "My God Jack.
