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.
