Good Grief, another fake circumnavigation. A circumnavigation
is defined as transiting the three great capes. Using the Panama
Canal is cheating. Using the Suez Canal is cheating.

Who decreed that? Seems to me a true circumnavigation should take place
at the earth's waist not its poles. So going via the canals is the true
circumnavigation.



Well, claiming different gives Wilbur a chance to disparaged someone
that is doing something that he is terrified to even attempt.
