Your welcome Diane, I thought the story about the man falling into the Sperm Whale's mouth then getting bitten and surviving was interesting. No matter how one views the history of Whaling I think our ancestors were heroic and did what they needed to do, they had few options but somehow always managed to make ends meet and take care of their families.
