Gilly,

I do have problems very often with your praises. Not alway sure if
they're mockery or just miss placed admoration.

Anyway, a master mariner he WAS NOT! His low end price vessel was
riddled with mistakes!

A Philosopher??? He has a very,very slanted, conserative bent on self
rightousness and has very often been proven to be full of ****.

You can now see those dumb views expressed under the name of Ellen
MacArther. He can't help himself. He has to spout off. It blows his
cover.

I'm assuming your Praises are false Praises.


Ole Thom,

I really have a lot of respect for you for all your sailing experience,
being a Korean War Veteran, surviving the hurricane of '38 and rescuing the
Ambrose light ship from German saboteurs. The good Capt Neal joined the
flonkers to infiltrate and disable them. That is why they have a price on
his head and they are mostly disbanded. His sailing skills are legendary. He
sails regularly and competently in the notorious Straits of Florida, a
stretch of water with the highest number of accidents and mishaps in the
world. Look at those pictures of his fine blue water cruiser. It is well
founded, well cared for and highly modified to enhance its cruising
abilities and seaworthiness. The good Capt's philosophy is one of rugged
individualism with special emphasis on self sufficiency. Not only is this
congruent, but it is essential for true mastery of the sea. Once or twice
the good Capt may have slipped up, but if you stand back and look at the
whole man in the context of really living you will be overcome with a
profound sense of admiration.
