Shark skin saves naval industry money

Covering ship hulls with artificial shark skin could help ships sailing
smoothly. The growth of marine organisms such as barnacles on ship
hulls is a major cause of increased energy costs in the naval industry.
Shark skin offers a structural design that prevents this so called
'bio-fouling'.

You really should attribute things like this; otherwise its just
plagiarism.

I think plagiarism is when you try to take credit for something somebody
else said. Everybody knows Joe's not a shark skin researcher. He'd never be
able to come up with the shark skin thing on his own. I think he was right not
to give the source. It's embarrassingly dumb and it'll never work.
You have two choices. 1--Kill the growth with poison paint or 2--Get it off with
a scraper, scrub brush and sandpaper but you have to do it about every month.

Cheers,
Ellen

I use to have a boss that once a month would invite some of his employees to
his lake house to go sailing. Then he'd hand them brushes and scrapers and
put them to work on his boat. Very few ever accepted twice.

When I was a teen, I had a boss with a big motor yacht. At
haulout he'd take three of the lowest paid shop guys down on
a Saturday to wax/polish it. We got paid overtime and were
happy to do it.

I put this jerk Capt. JG in the blocked senders list. But now he's probably got kicked
off Supernews and has another ISP. Hee heee! Gilligan was talking like he was gonna
get gayganz tossed off. It looks like he succeeded. So now I'll just have a good
laugh and block sender one more time. It's easy enough to do.... Now, if only he'd get
a good case of the AIDS so we can be rid of him once and for all.

Cheers,
Ellen
