If I had to guess, it's a back handed swipe at CBS which is also known
as Black Rock and the analogy would be ratings wreck that is CBS. Not
that it is, I don't know - just speculating.


I got off the phone with a friend of mine who works in the maritime
shipping industry and has access to a lot of data bases.

As best as he can determine, there never has been a sailing vessel
named Black Rock in any navy or insured commercial service.

That dosen't mean that there wasn't one - it's not in the archives
that he has access to.

Hope that helps.

Later,
