Did it not further occur to you that you would not have
"multiple mechanical failures" if you did not insist on having
multiple mechanical systems? Does it not sound just a little
pathetic that you sound more like a mechanic than a sailor?


Remember when we were all kids and they had those search and find pictures in coloring books? Someone should go to Neal's
website and start circling all the mechanical and electrical devices he owns and uses quite religiously...How can one person be
so unaware of their own surroundings?
