Real life danger...

Above decks, in the North Atlantic, in Winter... there's no such thing as a
'safe' area above decks in those conditions, even without a storm.

The seas don't tolerate stupidity easily.


Aren't you the picture of compassion and respect!

Real life danger...
 
Bill simply stated a fact. Thousands of people die from stupid accidents
every day. It happens to the best and smartest of us, too. We're all one
brain fart from death. What's the compassion and respect issue about. Why
have compassion for someone we do not remotly know nor have even heard of
before death. Why compassion for surviviors also unknown. Respect for
survivors and or friends requires some form of contact, no?
